This walkthrough was written for the Xbox version of JKII. The main difference
from the PC version seems to be at the beginning of Artus Topside, and a small
section of Artus Mine B. Also, one secret area is missing in Yavin Canyon.
Although written for Jedi Master difficulty level, the tactics should work on
any difficulty level. The differences I noticed between difficulty settings
were: Number and type of enemies; Items found; Amount of damage taken from
weapons; Saber blocking effectiveness; Max health; Amount of shield points
available from converters; Max amount of shield points available from shield
generators; Hit-points, and AI of some Bosses (?).

I played the original JK and part of Dark Forces. JK was my fav. 'FPS' for a
long time. I awaited the arrival of the Xbox version of the sequel with high
hopes and a little dread. I've had bad experiences with other sequels living up
to the original, and consoles are at a disadvantage when it comes to view
control. I put off buying and waited for a copy to become avail. at BBV. When I
finally played it, I kicked myself for waiting and bought a copy. I don't buy
many games these days, my gaming dollar stretches farther with rentals. But
this was a keeper. JKII Xbox is not perfect, and it has changed from the
original in some ways. All in all though, it lives up to the legend and the
port to the Xbox was handled well, IMO. At the eighth level I experienced deja
vu. The wonder of Jedi Knight had returned. :) So when I finished I decided to
play thru on Master, and write up an in depth walkthrough. This walkthrough
comes as the buzz for the Xbox version has died way down, and the release of
JKIII has been announced. Two steps behind. That's me.
I played on Jedi setting for the "Experience." It was great fun. On the other
hand, for me Jedi Master difficulty was about survival. I'm not an exceptional
FPSer, far from it. As a swordsman I, sorta suck. ;) I'm not a Jedi_Knight,
more like a Man_with_saber. So I played each level section by section many
times, trying different tactics. I was looking for ones that minimized the
amount of pure 'shooting or saber skill' required. I am not that hot at
strafing and firing, so I strove to avoid situations that require it. Ditto for
snap shooting. You will still need a certain level of competence with the
controller to succeed. It's mostly stuff you can learn though, and not stuff
you need to be born with. I do have patience, and am persistent. I have no
qualms about sniping, running away, or hiding. So these are the type of tactics
I concentrated on. I _tried_ to find and use the favorable aspects of the level
design and AI. (I would like to believe the dev. team left some of these for us
as gifts.) You may have to load the last save and play sections more than once
to get a favorable 'roll of the dice' with the AI for some of these tactics to
work. Some tactics may also require loading an earlier save to setup properly.
I tried to limit the items needed for the tactics offered to those available in
the level. (But...) Even though to get to Jedi Master difficulty you must
finish the game, I wrote this as if it was the first time thru. It is also
written pretty much as a step by step guide, especially early on in the FPS
levels. I'm afraid I have done a less than perfect job of describing certain
things. It was very hard in places to describe the area and tactics in enough
detail to ensure understanding. *In some places I'm sure the opposite is true.*
I am open to constructive criticism. I will consider posting screen shots of
hard to describe sections if there is an interest. The walkthrough is aimed at
getting a 'lesser Jedi' (such as me) thru the levels with a minimum of 'twitch'
skill, and the reflexes of a fifty-year-old. One of my goals was to begin each
new level with fifty health and one hundred shields. Much of the walkthrough
will seem like overkill. (And I do things a little differently than the average
bear sometimes. ;) I eased up a bit in the later levels, but may still offer
options. If you are a better player just looking for help with a puzzle or
tough section, you may have a harder time than normal finding it. Sorry.
*Again, these tactics rely heavily on propitious (word for the day) level
design and AI. Lucky for me, the Dev. team was generous for the most part.
Thanks.*
There are other fine JKII walkthroughs at GameFAQs. The PC game is very close
to what you'll find in the Xbox game for the most part. Two of the PC
walkthroughs at GameFAQs (Azraelot, KyleKatrn) were awarded FAQ of the week,
and for good reason. The one by Azraelot (Matthew Rorie) in particular has many
tactics applicable to Jedi Master difficulty. All have something to offer. As
far as I can tell from the walkthrough here and some personal JKII-GCN play,
the GCN game is exactly the same except for controls. (I did sorely miss those
quick buttons, and much prefer the Xbox control scheme.) Most of these other
walkthroughs have expanded sections on enemies, weapons, and force powers you
should read. All are more concise and probably better for general walkthrough
needs on normal difficulty settings.

Having a large number of saves can increase save and load times considerably. I
would recommend five to ten working saves that you cycle thru at the top. And
one or two 'permanent' saves in each level, spaced to save you time when going
back to check things out after you finish.
I would also recommend spinning the analog sticks around the edge of their
movement limits a few times whenever loading a save after a reboot. This will
'center' the sticks.
There are more enemies, and they are more accurate on this difficulty setting.
The AI also seems changed. Saber defense is also less effective, and you will
take more damage from weapons when hit. It's hard (it's supposed to be,) but
the level design seems to be well thought out with regards to the various skill
levels of players. There is much to work with. The AI while quite good, and
fairly complex, also offers an advantage to those who are observant and
persistent.
Shield management is important on Jedi Master. You start with fifty points.
Power Converters can take you to a hundred, but only hold fifty points each.
(In general.) Shield generators can only take you to fifty. So try to avoid
using the power converters if you are lower than fifty until you can find a
generator.
Check out the controls menu. Adjust the sensitivity to fit your reflexes. *I
set my horizontal and vertical quite low for the FPS section. And turned it up
a hair for the rest of the game.* You should feel very comfortable when running
around. Auto Level can be a big help, but there are times when it will only
hinder. Some shots may only work with Auto Aim turned off. (This walkthrough
assumes it's on.) Slow the sensitivity down when sniping.
Save hard to find explosives (Det-Paks, Trip mines) for situations where need
them. There are quite a few Thermal Dets, but try to keep a couple on hand
anyway.
Save the seeker drones for bosses, and multiple Jedi if you can. (You can only
carry five though, and there are many more than that to be found.)
In the early levels, use the Medi-paks you find before using your Bactas.
When the third person view becomes available, make use of it to look around
corners with out being seen. (Over and under horizontal edges also.)
The verbalizations of the enemies can give clues to their 'state of mind.'
Listen, and try to get a feel the different types of behaviors that may follow
certain ones. The music also will speak to you. *The sound engine seems a bit
'buggered' in this version. Cheap TV, and not many sound options in the menu?*
The AI of the enemies is advanced in many respects. Oh, they can seem a bit
dumb at times, but there are many behaviors and they can change on the fly.
They also have good eyes and ears, sometimes a stray round can substantially
change the way a section plays out. You may have to replay sections for some of
these tactics to work, or wing it at times. The randomness of the AI
interaction which may work against you the first try, gives you a shot at a
more favorable 'throw of the dice' on subsequent replays. This is one of the
reasons I have recommended so many saves.
While the Xbox "Exclusive Feature" of configurable black and white buttons may
seem trivial at first glance, it's an excellent feature. Overcoming to a great
extent one of the limitations of Jedi Knight on a console. Somebody somewhere
(Vicarious Visions?) needs a pat on the back. (Pat, pat.) Having your fav. gun
handy is nice, but being able to use multiple force powers consecutively
without the dangers of wild D-pad slapping is much better than nice.

The left side cover advantage is a strong asset. I'm referring to using a
corner to your left as cover. You expose yourself less to enemies this way. You
can target an enemy before being detected. The cross-hair can 'see' (and the
weapon kill) an enemy around a corner before it is visible to you. (Or you to
it.) You can snipe enemies close and far away like this. Tapping the left stick
to strafe in small increments to move slowly left or (more important right
will come in handy. *If even tap-strafing is moving you too far, try facing the
wall at the corner, then turning slightly toward the corner. You can then tap
forward to ease up to the edge of the corner very slowly.* A slower horizontal
sensitivity setting, combined with tapping the left stick makes easing the
cross-hair around corners slowly much easier. When I refer to a corner, or
doorway, or door jamb, or cover in the walkthrough, I'm probably referring to
this technique. Always approach an opening or doorway from the left side if you
have a choice. Vertical edges will also sometimes work for cover. *If you are
sniping around a corner, and have a red cross-hair but the Briar secondary
is not connecting, be sure you're not hitting the corner. If that's not the
problem, try adjusting your aim or firing two or three primary shots instead.*
Try strafing instead of turning to make fine adjustments to your aim. This can
make adjusting your aim while crouched much less painful. And seems to be
easier to do while under pressure. (Backing away from enemies while taking
fire.) If aiming up or down at something, moving forward and back works the
same way vertically.
Fight from cover. Use any obstruction handy to minimize the size of the target
you expose to gun wielding enemies. An open doorway faced at an angle from the
left side can be like firing thru a slit. *Narrow doors and hallways will also
funnel your enemies, turning mobs into single foes.* Distance can also work as
cover.
Don't confront if you can snipe. The binoculars combined with the excellent
accuracy of the Briar pistol make long range sniping possible early in the
game. There aren't that many opportunities unfortunately. There are plenty of
chances to snipe short and medium range from cover though. This walkthrough
relies heavily on sniping from cover. The Briar and E-11 will be the primary
weapons for sniping. Kyle fires them from the right side of his body, so they
maximize the "left side cover advantage." The Bowcaster is ill-suited to this
technique.
Sight in your weapons with the binoculars early on. You need to know where the
rounds will group, and the size and shape of the group. The Briar Pistol is a
'tack driver,' the Blaster Rifle somewhat less accurate. The bowcaster is quite
accurate also, and a good second choice for long range sniping when close cover
isn't needed.
Find a 'defensible position' to fight from early on in a level or section if
you can. This can be as simple as a narrow spot in a hallway. Or as elaborate
as a sweet spot where you can hit but not be hit. Bait the enemies that can't
be sniped back to these whenever possible. This tactic is also frequently used
in the FPS levels of this walkthrough.
*I use the term snipe to refer to a kill where the victim is either unaware of
your presence or can't effectively return fire. In a few places this may need
to be a one shot kill.*
*When I refer to the Briar, I almost always mean secondary fire, fully
charged.*

Once you acquire the light-saber, it should be the weapon of choice. The other
weapons will be used almost exclusively in specialty roles. (Primarily
sniping.) The saber acts as a shield, a melee weapon, and a short 'ranged'
weapon. Used in combination with the force powers it will bring the effective
game difficulty setting down a notch. (The level design adjusts somewhat as
well though.) ;) This walkthrough assumes only a moderate amount of saber
mastery however. Three moves you should practice and be adept at are the
Top-Down Hack, linked short slashes, and the Forward Lunge. There are more
moves of course, but I will describe only these. These are the three I used
primarily. *Well, these and the 'hold the trigger and dance around' move. (To
the tune of Aaahhh! by Homer Simpson.)*
The "Top-Down Hack" is available to all three saber styles, but is in general
most effective on medium for the walkthrough. Press attack while not moving and
looking down, or while moving forward or back. It's the standard finishing move
for non-saber wielding enemies on the ground. (Also used on saber wielders that
are down, of course.) The blue will work but should be aimed down. Top-Down
Hacks can be chained by holding down the attack while moving forward or back.
Four times it appears for the medium style, unlimited for fast. (Two for strong
style.) It takes some practice but by moving forward and back at the right
tempo while holding attack, you can land the chain in a small area. You can get
in multiple hits on strong enemies that are down this way. These chained moves
are delivered much faster than when you just hold the attack and look down.
Linked (or chained) short slashes aren't in the book, and probably aren't even
real 'moves.' They are just short, quicker versions of the normal horizontal
swipe. They are started by side strafing left just after pressing the attack
button while not moving. Then while holding attack, strafe back and forth. The
timing of the strafes varies with the style, of course. You can link four with
medium style it seems, and indefinitely with the fast. Medium is much easier.
The technique will deliver many quick blows to an opponent directly in front of
you. When used with speed after a grip, they can take out a Shadow Trooper or
Reborn nearly as fast as the Forward Lunge. They deliver damage (although
possibly slowly) even thru saber defense. They are relatively easy to master,
and needn't be aimed with too much precision. Just a step above dancing about
with the attack held down, but a step in the right direction.
The "Forward Lunge" is only available with the fast (blue) style. While not
moving and crouched, press and hold forward, _then_ press attack. (The quicker
the better, but foremost is consistency.) A variant will be executed if you
press attack before forward. Holding the attack trigger will chain the move
indefinitely. You can steer with the right stick, but the left stick must be
pressed forward. Practice this simple move until you feel very comfortable with
it. You should be able to do it from a dead run, or while backing up. It's
fast, and in my experience it's power when landed solidly is on par with any
strong style move. When coupled with speed or grip (or both,) it's one of the
best moves in the game IMHO. ('Don't look half bad either.)
You can also injure enemies with the saber defense. If the saber is in their
body or will move thru it when it moves to deflect an incoming shot, it will
cut. For lesser enemies one time usually kills. This can speed up melees when
you can't afford to swing. Saber defense can also be used kill Squad Leaders
whose rounds you cannot reflect back at them. And it is an excellent way to
destroy the little mechs you will run into later on. It seems to work best when
you are moving near the target at the time of the block. *Dance around them. To
the tune of...*
You can also use the saber defense to safely set up shots near the edges of
obstructions (cover.) Tap strafe back to the edge of cover while blocking fire
until the firing just stops. You should now be able to target with the FPS
cross-hair without taking fire.

Speed, push, pull, and jump are the first forces you'll receive. (Along with
saber throw.) Speed will give you an obvious advantage over foes that aren't
using it themselves. (I believe it also increases the power of some saber
moves.) It also slows things down when attempting stuff where the timing is
critical. (Combat and other.) Push and pull are two sides to the same coin.
Both can be good for setting up saber kills on non Jedi type enemies. And free
shots on Jedi type enemies. (By the time you meet Jedi type enemies, it and
push are rank 2.) Both can be used to break the rhythm of attacking Jedi type
enemies. (Either can 'break' a saber attack in mid-swing.) Both work on
mechanical enemies. Both can catch Jedi in the air or when performing
acrobatics. And when the rank goes up, both can be used to break grip. Push is
much more forgiving of aim, and has a wider reach. Pull will bring your foes
closer, and _seems_ to leave them at a disadvantage a bit more often. The
higher rank pull will also strip weapons from non Jedi.
Saber throw has its place, but you are wide open while it's out. I used it
quite a bit, but usually aimed low for a quick rebound off the floor just
beyond the enemy. Or for taking out enemies around corners.
Mind-trick is another important one on my list for non saber enemies. It uses
a small amount of force, and in the early levels the button can be held down
until a target is found with no loss of force. A machine gun force of sorts.
(The third person animation is hilarious.) Used at a doorway with the saber as
enemies file thru it can be very effective. It either stops them in their
tracks or slows them to a walk, blocking the door long enough for a safe saber
kill. *Be sure to let go of the button when the mind-trick 'takes' (blue
sparkles,) or your force meter will be quickly drained.*
I consider rank 2 grip (and above) the most important for Jedi type enemies.
Although it can kill lesser Jedi types, its main utility lies in it's power to
stun momentarily and cause the enemy to sheath their saber. Your foe is
stationary, and empty handed. It only takes a small amount of force to stun,
it's efficient. Followed by a powerful saber move, I consider it the force of
choice. *I prefer rank 2 for this as rank 3 moves your opponent away if your
close.* Speed enhances it, if you can handle the speed. Early Jedi type enemies
may not match your speed. When you run into those who do, use grip first and
then speed. This seems to prevent more advanced Jedi from matching your speed.
(At least right away.) When it is being broken quickly by your opponents,
switch to multiple shorter duration grips. Short grips (any rank) can also be
used at doorways with the saber (as above with mind-trick.) Grip will continue
to work thru doors and walls after it has been initiated.
Heal makes Bacta much less valuable. Bacta works immediately though, and uses
no force.
Lightning is great for mech. enemies, but until it reaches rank 2 there are
usually better choices for breathing foes. At rank 3 it becomes a formidable
force.

When Kyle starts responding to the helm, turn left and go through the unlocked
door. Jump up to the Secret Area and grab the Bacta. On the way out note the
Ammo and Medi-pak in the alcove to the right. Walk under the Imperial shuttle
and take up a position near the left landing gear. After the two Storm Troopers
finish chatting and move to their sentry positions, target the one to the right
and take him out with the Briar Pistol secondary.
The other Storm Trooper will run to the left side of the shuttle and should be
unable to hit you. Let Jan check her sights on him while you use the landing
gear as cover. Move to the front of the shuttle and use the drums to climb to
the concrete ledge. *Make sure Jan has followed.* Slowly move toward the
corner. An Officer will hear you, then speak. He will then come around the
corner to investigate. *If he doesn't, ease up to the edge and head shoot him.*
Avoid his fire, Jan will get him eventually. Once he is out of the picture,
stay on the ledge and move to where you can see the Storm Troopers around the
corner. Now move to your left, about half way to the edge. Survey the scene.
Save?
There are three stationary sentries, and three patrolling. (One is on the upper
walkway.) Two are patrolling left to right farther out, one to and fro closer
to you under the walkway. *You may not see him.* The patroller that passes
closest to the stationary STrooper behind the crates, needs to be taken out
with a clean Briar shot. *He may cause problems if you don't.* Use the
Binoculars to set up a shot where he stops after walking to the right. On his
next round, take him out. *Charge the pistol before he gets back, and resist
the temptation to lead him. Release the trigger just after the cross-hair turns
red, and he stops.* As soon as you let the Briar shot fly, run back off the
ledge you're on and get behind the barrels that are next to the shuttle.
Jan will usually handle anyone who comes without taking damage. (Most of them
will be trying to fire at you.) When she stops firing, get back up on the ledge
and finish things from the corner. (You can usually snipe the guy on the
balcony safely from there.) As soon as the last Storm Trooper's gone, Jan will
try shooting the door. Save?
Get into position for the three Storm Troopers who will respond. You can use
the three crates with reddish tops for cover, but be sure the explosives near
them are gone. *Fire a few rounds at the three STroopers as they round the
corner to get their focus.* Head shoot the ones you can, while Jan peppers them
from behind. When it's quiet, head 'round to the door they came out of and ease
in.
There is a Shield Power Converter to the right (Shield Management) and to the
left another door, behind which an Officer waits. Consider trying out the left
side corner advantage here. Open the door from the left side. Tap the strafe to
ease to the right until you can see about half of him. Get a red cross-hair and
hold down a trigger for as long as it takes. Grab the key he has, and get on
the round lift. Press the button to go up. Get off and go into the room to your
right. Ride that lift up.
There's a switch to power up the perimeter defenses (Mountable Turbo Laser.)
Press it for a cut scene. Three Storm Troopers will come running out onto the
balcony from a side room up here. Get their attention with a shot or two, and
let Jan finish it. In the room they were in are a Bacta and some ammo. After
your done head back down and fill up on ammo if need be. Now get to the Turbo
Laser and use it to blow the door. Follow Jan to the lift and ride it down. Get
off and wait for it to rise. Don't press the switch by the door. Save?
Blue section.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once the lift has started back up, drop down into the hole underneath it. There
is a little door, go thru it and look left to see a malfunctioning machine.
Then turn right and follow the tunnel. Around the corner is a switch for the
broken machine. Press it and make your way to the now idle machine. Go around
it and thru the opening. Use the lift in the corner. Shoot the defective
looking grate, and drop down. Take out the Officer (Supply Key) and look
around. Note the Ammo, Medi-pak, and four switches.
*FYI: From the left: Switch 1 unlocks the door next to the entrance. (The
entrance door is already unlocked.) Switch 2 unlocks the door to the room you
are in. (Jan will enter.) Switch 3 unlocks the door at the far end of the hall.
And switch 4 unlocks a door at the far end of the room that switch 1 provides
access to.*
You have to press switch 2, so go ahead. @Option1. Press switches 3 and 4 also.
Leave the control room, turn left and go thru the door at the end of the hall.
There will be doors on either side of you. Open the one to the left, and fire a
few rounds inside to get some attention. Quickly turn and run thru the other
door (not the one you came in) and hang a right thru the next door just beyond.
There will be a single crate near the left wall at the far end of the room, aim
for its left edge. You will want to end up behind the crate, crouched, and
tucked in tight between it and the wall support it's up against. *Be careful
not to get hung up by the wall support you pass close to on the way.* If all
went well, no one is hitting you, and you took no damage, Save? (The crouch
won't be saved.)
Charge up the ol' Briar and turn until your cross-hair is at the edge of the
crate. (Toward the door you just came thru.) Strafe right just a wee bit.
(Tapping forward will strafe you right while exposing less of your back.)
Search around the edge of the crate with your cross-hair and you should find a
target (red cross-hair) soon. No need to rush things here, sometimes these
STroopers take awhile to decide what to do. If you don't get a red cross-hair
after waiting a bit, quickly strafe out and back in a time or two. You may have
to ease out and look for these guys once in awhile, but always strafe back to
safety if you see movement. (Remember to lead with your cross-hair.)
The last two or three STroopers may be intent on staying on the left side of
the crate or in front of it. Take them out while crouched if can, but you might
have to stand. You should be able to clear the room with little or no loss of
shield. Gather up the ammo you need, and then check the room for goodies.
(Small Shield Generator, Thermals, and a Battery.) *If you shot the three
STroopers in this room from below, their rifles may be under the explosive
crate.* Save?
Now head back out the door and turn left. Go thru the door straight ahead, and
look around the corner to the right. You'll see a lone Sentry down the hall.
When you shoot him two others will attack. These two are closer to you behind
jogs in the wall on the left and right. Charge up the Briar, and as soon as you
release the trigger, make for the safety of the _crate_. Take the guys that
follow just like you did before.
Head back to the hall these guys were in and go as far as the stairway. There
are four more STroopers ahead. Two fairly close and two farther on. To get all
four alerted, fire straight down the hall. Try to hit the wall at the very end
of it. This doesn't always work. If not, move up the left side of the hall
until you can shoot the first guy on the right, or he sees you. _Crate_ again.
*Or just use the narrow hallway to funnel them and use distance for cover. (Try
strafing to aim, rather than turning.)*
If only three follow you, the fourth will most likely be on the bridge over the
pit. He can be sniped from the room with a bunker style window that overlooks
the pit. (Crouch to sneak up on him.) When all four are dead, make your way to
the large room with a power droid. (Battery recharge.) In the lock-box is a set
of Light Amplification Goggles(LAG,) grab them. Press the switch near the
elevator and get on.
At the bottom it's dark, but safe. (Watch out for the mouse.) There are some
Ammo and Medi-Paks on one wall (Secret area.) At the end of the dark room is an
opening into a chamber with a short door. On the other side is an Officer and
four STroopers. Save?
Crouch and move to the door to open it. Snipe the Officer (Supply Key,) then
strafe left to safety. Use the corner for cover, or strafe back and forth
across the door. You can use a thermal or two if want, but save one. When the
room's clear, look at the code (it'll be entered into your Data-pad) and press
the two switches to unlock the red and green sections of the outpost.
Check out the surveillance cams for a glimpse of the other sections. (Note the
auto- turrets.) Exit thru the big door, press the switch to lower the force
field, and climb the stairs. (Ammo, and Medi-Pak off to the left near the top.)
Turn left, and after you've "walked on down the hall," (ammo, Medi-Pak off to
the left) follow the bridge out to the center of the hole. The Main Array. Turn
to the left but don't cross the yellow line. Save?
Green section.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can take out the auto-turrets, but it is quicker and easier to just run by
them. Run into the control booth and take out the Officer there. (Round the
corner with the E-11 secondary going.) Hit the switch to turn off the guns!
There is Ammo, and a Bacta in here.
Move down the steps until the door opens. Turn left to face the hallway.
Crouch, and tap-strafe out until you can see a kneeling STrooper. (If he's not
there, load the last save and run in again.) Take him out without any stray
fire going past him. Then strafe right until you can see the two STroopers
further down the hall. (You don't _have_ to crouch now.)
Target the one on right. Then strafe left. You should be able to target (red
cross-hair) both of these guys using only the left stick, if not move forward
or back a bit. Crouch if want for a little added safety, and target the one on
the right. Equip the E11, then press and hold primary fire. When he goes down,
strafe left to target the other. Switch to the secondary if he gets near. Stop
firing when he goes down and wait here, a third STrooper from even further down
should be on the way. He will probably run right into your cross-hair. Start
with primary fire, and switch to secondary if he gets close.
There is one more STrooper in hallway, way down there. He may be alerted, but
usually stays put. So, stand up and move down to where the hallway opens up on
the left side. Hug the right wall as go, he will be at the top of some stairs.
(Note the two locked doors you pass.) If alerted he may rush you, if not you
can snipe him. (Binocs.) Retreat to the booth if necessary. Save?
When these four STroopers are dead, it should get quiet. Ah, the quiet. Go up
the stairs at the far end of the hall. There will be an unlocked door to the
right. And another farther on and to the left. Just to the right of that one,
is a narrow door. Run past the door on the left and thru the narrow door. Turn
off the turrets. (Ammo, Medi, and a Bacta.) Head into the turret room, and thru
the narrow door in there. Open the lock-box for another Bacta. The round
elevator goes topside.
Go back out into the hallway and thru the unlocked door at the top of the
stairs. There's Ammo and a Medi on the wall, a couple of explosive crates, and
a little machine in a corner. Move over behind the machine and face the door,
then crouch. Seems defensible. Save?
Leave the room and go just thru the unlocked door at the bottom of the stairs.
There are four STroopers in this room. Crouch, and ease your cross-hair around
the corner. Target the first STrooper that shows up. Take him out with a single
Briar shot if can, but as soon as you fire retreat thru the door. Run back to
the room with the little machine and explosive crates. Crouch behind the
explosive crates... Just kidding, crouch behind the machine and face the door.
Once these guys show up, make like a Jedi Jack in the Box with the crouch
button. *I like the E11 secondary.* Adjust your aim while crouched of course.
Three STroopers should have followed, four if the first guy didn't go down in
the room before. If they don't all follow you, load the last save, or be
prepared to clean up. Head back into the room at the bottom of the stairs.
There are some square electronic looking things running thru the room
vertically in here. And a set of switches. One is blinking, but don't press it
yet. Save? *Get out the E11 or Briar, and experiment with the conduits in here
for a break if you want. Then load the last save.*
When you press the switch Kyle will contact Jan. She'll run into trouble and a
timer will start. The conversation time is free time. So press the switch and
immediately head toward the Main Array. Jan will die if you take _too_ long to
get to her. *As a reference, when she finally says "Hurry up, Kyle," you'll
still have about twenty-five seconds get to the room she is in. (The room with
the power droid.)*
The first obstacle will be two STroopers on the ramp connecting the Main Array
to the blue section. Crouch just before you get to the ramp, and take out the
furthest one with the Briar secondary from there. Switch to the E11, and get
the other as he rounds the corner at the Array.
Stand back up and run over to the blue section. As you enter turn right and hug
the right wall, then just keep running to the end of this hall. You'll pass
three more STroopers, who will start shooting at you. Two will give chase. Pay
them no mind (zigzag a bit if you want,) just keep going. Pass close to the
door on your left to open it as you go by. (Listen for a scream.) When you get
to or near the end of this hallway turn around.
Crouch if you want, aim, and mow down the STroopers following you as they are
funneled by the hall. Switch to primary fire and tap strafe until you can
target the last one. (He's way down there.) Head back to the room Jan is in
when you finish. There should be plenty of time left. (I believe the timer
stops when the door opens as you run past.)
Once you are in the room, Jan is safe as far as I can tell. And these guys will
be oblivious to your presence. *A good time to see what the Stun Baton feels
like in action.* Lead her back the access panel, where she will open the two
doors that were locked before. These doors both lead into the room with the
green code. There are also seven STroopers and an Officer inside.
Leave the room Jan is in thru the door farthest from where she is working. Run
close to both doors of the code room (to open them) on your way to the room
with the little machine and explosive crates. *Fire a shot or two as you go by
the doors.* After another session of pop goes the weasel, head back to the code
room for the green code. There's also Ammo, a Medi, a Large Shield Generator,
and a Bacta in here. (Hopefully, you only need the Ammo.) Head back to the Main
Array. (Ammo up.) Save?
Red section.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
>New enemy, Probe Droids. (Garrulus Apparatus Probare?)
>New enemy, Auto-Turret.
This section starts out like the last. Run past the auto-turrets, kill the
officer and shut down the turrets. (Ammo, Bacta.) Leave the booth and move to
the bottom of the stairs. There are two STroopers on a landing up above. Hug
the left wall and move up until you can see about three cross-hair widths of
the stairwell wall.
Fire an E11 shot at the right side of the wall, then move the cross-hair to the
left side. When the first one runs down and _stops_, secondary fire. If you
lead him, he'll stop and bolt. Adjust your aim if need be, of course. Repeat as
necessary. *You may have to bait them by running up the stairs a bit, and then
retreating.*
Up above you'll find an elevator. (Large Shield Generator in this room.) On the
top level are two more STroopers. Ride the lift up and get a bead on the first
STrooper while you count how long it takes for the lift to go back down. Charge
up the Briar, and when the lift takes you up again fire just before you figure
it will head back down. Get off the lift when it bottoms, then head shoot the
other guy when he shows up.
Ride up the elevator again and press the switch by the windows. (Small Shield
Generator in the corner of this room.) Head around the pit on the ledge that
circles it. There is a switch on the far side. It will activate the power to
the Main Array. It will also bring an Officer and four STroopers up to
investigate. Save?
Press the switch. You can run back and toss a Thermal Detonator in the elevator
hole if you're quick. A little luck and they will all be dead. *Or stay out
here on the ledge, and position yourself so that the Main Array is between you
and the middle of observation room. Use the Briar on the two guys that came
outside first. Then slowly move right and pick off the others one by one, using
the cylinder in the middle for cover. Watch out for the Officer (Supply Key,)
he's a cut above the STroopers.*
When it's over, work your way back down to door beyond the stairs. Save? Move
close enough to open the door where a large computer bank will be visible.
Inside the door and to the right is the first STrooper to be dealt with. Charge
your Briar and strafe in. Quickly set up the shot, let it fly and head back to
the control booth entrance. Equip the E11 and prepare for another STrooper that
may come thru the door.
If he doesn't show, run up to open the door and then back away prepared to
shoot. If he still stays put, he probably wasn't alerted. *Move to where the
first guy was, then take this next one out from cover at the corner of the
computer.* Save?
On the far side of the computer is a hallway. *The two lock-boxes contain
Bacta.* Two STroopers are waiting in it, so approach it from the left side.
Snipe one from the corner, then strafe out and mow down the other with E11
secondary. *Or run to a defensible position to finish him, and then return.*
Up around the corner to left is a camped STrooper. Easy snipe from the corner.
Near where he fell, are a pair of charging stations. There is a window close
by, and a door. Move close enough to open it, and watch the mayhem. There's a
STrooper kneeling just inside to the right. And another standing way down the
tunnel to the left. Strafe in and out for the kneeler, then use the left side
of the tunnel entrance for cover to get the one in the tunnel. Battery in the
corner if you need it. (Crouch.)
Into the tunnel you go. It's falling apart, but will last long enough if you
hurry. When you regain control keep going to the end and head down the stairs.
You'll hear the sound of Probe Droid chit-chat. One will be near the doorway
but will fire and bolt for cover when it sees you. There are three of them down
here in the Probe Droid break room. Two shooting the breeze while the third
soaks up some... (Why does this remind me of Bender?) Save?
Take out the Droid in the wall indentation first, then the other two. The E11
is more efficient. *Snipe rather than confront.* Ride the lift with yellow
stripes up to the Ammo Power Converter. There's more Ammo and a Medi on the
wall. Go thru the door up here and grab the Thermals in the corner. Then take
out the STrooper in the tunnel.
Move to where he was, then move slowly ahead. The tunnel will rumble, and then
further along, explode. Move down a little more until you can snipe the Officer
standing in the window of the control room. (Binocs.) Head back to the break
room. *Jump over the missing floor section in the tunnel!*
Ride the other elevator up, and move to where you can take out the first Probe
Droid outside to the left. *Snipe it if you can. Until you can see about half
of it, it won't be able to see you.* Then move up to the edge and snipe another
Officer in the control room across the chasm. Make a run to the break room for
ammo and come back. There's another Droid to the right. Save?
Hit it once with the Briar from here, then drop down to the next ledge and use
the dish for cover to finish it off. There is a Large Shield Generator in a
corner by the satellite dish. Cross the chasm using the tunnel top. At the
other end is a hole leading back into the tunnel. Take out the two STroopers,
and drop on in.
One Officer remains in the control room. Pop him in the head from the corner of
the entry-way. The door on the far side has three STroopers behind it facing
your way. So go around the left side of the room. (Ammo, Medi.) Ease up to the
corner, and snipe these guys one by one.
There's also an Officer in there. If he didn't move out when the STroopers were
falling, he'll be around the corner. Schnipe. Also around the corner is the red
code, and a door. Three STroopers are waiting for you behind it. *They are the
last in the level.*
Fire a couple of shots out the door to get two of them moving. When they run by
the door, head for the turret control booth near the main array. Then after
taking out the two that follow from there, go back for the kneeler in the hall.
When your done, ammo up, heal up, and max out your shield. Then go to the Main
Array.
Enter the codes from your Data-pad into the symbol consoles on three sides of
it. *There are three separate switches at each colored code input console. Left
right and center. Cycle thru each one to make the center display look like the
code in your Data-pad.* This powers up the switches on the fourth side. Press
all three. Head across the now extended ramp, and go thru the door to the next
level. Save?

>New enemy, LBoDs (Large Buttons of Death.) *Aggressive yet cautious button
>shaped, repulsor equipped droids with a high rate of fire.*
Ease up until you can shoot the flammable gas bottle on the floor. This should
take out two STroopers. There are four more, and an Officer around the corner.
Ease your cross-hair around the corner carefully and you should be able to
snipe them all. They are alerted, so use the E11 in case one of them gets antsy
and rushes you.
The Officer has a Security Key. There is Ammo, a pair of Light Amplification
Goggles (LAG,) and a Medi in one side room, and Ammo (Rifles) in the other. In
the Rifle room, move into the corner closest to the door and opposite the Rifle
racks. Find the position where you can see one cross-hair width or so of the
hall outside. Call this a defensible position for now.
Head back to the locked door. Use the key to open it, then immediately back up
to avoid the turret fire. Either mow down the guys that come running with
secondary E11 while backing up, or head to the defensible position and wait.
*Fire whenever you see them, or they may come in. Chances are you will have to
go out for one.* Save?
Ammo up, and go back to the door. Move close enough to just open it. You can
safely take out the auto-turret from there. In the far corner of this room is
an unlocked door. Move up close enough to open it. You'll have a couple seconds
before the enemies inside fire to get one in your cross-hair and open up. When
the first guy goes down start backing away and strafe to target the other.
In this room (more of a hallway) is a switch, a closed blast door, and an entry
way blocked by a force field. (Ammo, Medi) Look thru the force field, there is
an Officer at a panel in there. Press the switch to will open the blast door.
Shoot the window and jump up onto the sill. Snipe the Officer (Supply Key) and
drop into the room.
Press the two switches to move a robotic arm inside the very large refrigerator
in the center of the room. (Press the left one, wait 'till the arm stops, press
the other.) There's also a security panel to left providing access to three
cameras for a glimpse of the "road ahead." Turn to face the fridge. Shoot out
the window to the right of the thing that looks like a very large Bacta tank.
(Avoid going close to the opening to the right in this room.)
Flick the switch by the force field to lower it if you want. Then go thru the
window into the fridge. *If you fall to the floor in here, it'll hurt you until
you move off of it. The cold gas that comes out the vents is also unhealthy.*
Save?
Note the door at the bottom on the far side. Make your way around the ledge
you're on, to a spot just above that door. Back slowly off the ledge. Press
forward as soon as you start to drop, to move quickly out of the fridge. Follow
the hall to the door on the right. Go inside and shut down the refrigeration
units.
Then while hugging the right wall, go up the stairs and press the switch to
unlock the door. Don't move. Look around. You should soon notice two of a new
type of droid (LBoD,) in a cubby hole just in front of you. *Faster, smarter.
They don't seem quite as accurate, but have a higher rate of fire to
compensate. They have very effective force-fields, and can only be damaged when
firing or preparing to fire.*
Turn off your Auto Aim if it's on (Advanced Controls menu,) and send them to
the junkyard. They will turn toward you after the first shot, but won't move
out if you don't expose yourself too much. *You will be sniping just the edge
of them.* Now move ahead while looking up. The two STroopers on the catwalk
will come into view thru the grating.
Shoot them thru the grating. Turn back on the Auto Aim, and head back into the
fridge. Use the arm this time to jump up to the catwalk the STroopers were on.
*There's a secret area in a room on the far side of the fridge. Use the ledge
around the outside of the fridge to get to it. (Ammo, Medi, Battery and Small
Shield Generator in a lock-box.* Head down the catwalk toward the door.
*Another secret off to the left in the dark area with pipes. You have to jump
over to it. (Ammo Power Converter, Thermal Dets.) Save?
Behind the door is STrooper. As soon as he goes down either back clear off the
catwalk onto the arm in the fridge, or back up, then jump to the secret area
and hide behind the pipes. There are two (maybe three) more LBoDs looking for
you.
If you're in the pipes, use them for cover and snipe. These guys are fast so
ease out slowly. *You may have to bait them out of the room by moving close to
the door.* These droids have reflective shields that cannot be penetrated by
your guns. To snipe them, you will have to target a part of them without them
'seeing' you. Try to get a red cross-hair while only being able to see a
quarter of them, or less. You may want to disable the auto-aim. If you can't
get thru their shields, strafe in and out to take pot shots while they charge
their guns.
If you're on the arm in the fridge, you'll be jumping up and taking pot-shots
at them. You will only get thru their shields when they are firing, or
preparing to fire. Luckily, that will be almost every time you jump. *You may
have to bait them out of the room by getting up onto the catwalk.* When you
have some luck with this, save.
The last one is waiting inside to the left if it didn't opt in for the fun.
Ease into the room 'till you can just see the edge of it. Three shots from the
E11 will take it out if it isn't alerted. Now enter the room they were guarding
just far enough to take a look around. Note the windows to the right of a door
to nowhere, off to your left. Note the red cross-hairs you get if you slowly
sweep the windows.
Take the bridge out to the round structure, and go around the right side of it.
Ease around to where the windows just show up. Use the structure for cover to
snipe the two STroopers and an Officer over there. Move up toward the edge of
the ledge your standing on and look down. There's an entry way with two more
STroopers. Snipe them. If you miss, and they run into the room behind them,
don't worry about it. (It's a very unfriendly room.)
Now make your way around the ledge at the outside of the room over to the
windows you just trashed. Shoot the explosives, to fry the switch, that extends
the bridge, to the room you want get to. Oh yeah, on the subject of fry, the
water down below is electrified. Head back around the ledge and use the new
bridge to check out the room you just gained access to.
There's some Ammo, a Medi, a switch and an elevator. Take the elevator down for
more Ammo. There's also a narrow hallway down here, follow it to a room with a
view. Press the switch to watch the floor change. You now have access to one of
the blocks hanging from the walls down there. The center one. There are three
Bactas, and a Large Shield Generator on that block.
Ride the lift back up, and press the switch if you didn't before. Then head
back to the central structure, then across the bridge to the right. Turn right
and follow the ledge to an elevator. Take it down to the lower level.
>>>Block room 1st time: Save? If you need any of the goodies on the hanging
block, go left and then down the ramp to enter the block room. There are three
auto-turrets active now. The first one is close to the door and to the right.
The next one farther down on the same wall, behind the first support beam. The
last one is on the far wall to the right. When the turrets are destroyed, use
the blocks to jump to the goodies. Go back out the door and to the bottom of
the little lift.<<<
If you don't need the stuff, go the other way, (to the right) all the way
around, and find the bridge over electrified waters you extended with the
switch above. Cross the bridge and go thru the door. Drop into the hole of no
return and then go thru the pipe. There is a switch in the corner on a panel
with a Bacta sitting on top. Pressing this switch raises some very familiar
looking... Phantom Menace? (These do nothing as far as I know.) To the right is
an unlocked (green) door. To the left is access to the block room again. Save?
>>>Block room 2nd time: At the far end of the room are two sets of stairs. One
up, one down. Go up. Then down the hall and thru the familiar looking door.
Press the switch only if you must. (You get one shot at each block of goodies.)
The other stairs lead down to the goodies. (Two Blaster-paks, a Large Shield
Generator, and a Bacta this time.) First turret is to the left, close to the
door in a hole in the wall. Next, the one that shot at you on the way in, in a
hole on same wall as the hanging blocks. (Just to the right of the center
hanging block.) Another one on the wall of hanging blocks, farther down in a
hole. The last is in a hole on the farthest wall. Go back up the stairs when
you're done, thru the room and back to the green door you first noticed in
here.<<<
When you open the green door, there will be an Officer (Supply key) behind
glass. E11 secondary until he succumbs, then strafe left off the edge. Exercise
time. Jedi Jumpin' Jacks, assume the position. Jump, fire. Adjust your aim,
jump, fire. Six STroopers you'll have to kill. There might be a straggler,
usually around the corner to the left. Sometimes down in the detention area to
the right. There's an auto-turret just inside the room and to the right. Save?
You can strafe out and shoot it, or run into the hole the Officer was in, and
shut it off with the switch there.
In one direction are some detention cells. (Red force fields.) Go the other
direction almost to the corner. There is an Officer in a little alcove to the
right. Toss in a Thermal and then take his Security key. Note the locked
security door at the end of the hall. Then turn around and head down into the
detention area. Save?
Find the lift and ride it up. Off to left is an Officer behind bulletproof
glass. Shoot the glass to get his attention, then take him out as he comes thru
the door. (Or go around the room on the right side to sneak up on him, and toss
in a Thermal Det.) Press the switch in his office to lower the force fields in
the cell area. (This also sets free a couple of interrogator droids.)
Head back toward the lift you rode up. Go thru the narrow door there into a
turret control booth, and press the switch to unlock the other door. (Now you
have easy access to the beginning of the level.) Ride the lift back down to the
cell area and run thru it to the stairs at the far end. Go up the stairs and
turn around. Take out the droids when they arrive. These guys have no blasters,
just hypos. Back up to keep some distance from them and you shouldn't be hurt.
Go back into the cell area now and in two side rooms are Thermal Dets, Det-
Paks, Ammo, a Medis and a Bacta in a lock-box. (Save the Det-Paks.) Back up the
stairs now and back to the room that had a security door at one end. Follow the
hall around to the security door. Use the key you have to open it and go
inside.
The switches to the left can give access to the Shield Power Converter I failed
to mention before. (Press the right one first and then keep pressing the other
until the glass shatters in the room below and in front of you.) Head back down
there for a shield recharge if you need one, and return. (Shield management.)
Now go thru the door past the switches and follow the hall to the next room.
Save?
There are two auto-turrets in here. Ease in until you can see an explosive
crate in one corner. Shoot it until it's gone. Now you can either take out the
turrets with blaster fire, or just run to the corner and jump up on the crates.
Enter the vent tunnel and follow it to a grate. Shoot the grate and drop down
into the control room. Hit both switches and ease out the door. Save?
The closest door is locked, as is the one at the end of the hall. If you
approach the closest one though, it will unlock and then open. There will be an
explosion, STroopers will die, and you will take damage if you are too close.
Move to a position left of the door and on the opposite side of the hall. You
want to be able to just see into the room when the door is open. Move in to
trigger the door, then back away.
The door will open, but stay back until after the explosion. While the door is
open, fine tune your lateral position so you can see into the room thru a
narrow slit. Move in as soon as the door closes, far enough to reopen it. Fire
at the five STroopers and an Officer (Security key) as they enter your field of
fire. A STrooper or two may try to make it out the door. Punt, or load the last
save. If they stop moving into your cross-hairs, back up and let the door
close, and then move back in. You may have to go in after the last one or two
of them. *You're getting close to the end of the level. If you did well earlier
and know there are Shield Generators behind you, you can afford to lose a few
shield points here.*
When all five are dead, look around the room. (Ammo.) There is a pink narrow
door at one end. Leave it for now. At the other end are a locked security door,
and a familiar looking hall with a door. Open the locked door with the Officers
key, and move away. There are two STroopers inside. Shoot them, or toss in a
Thermal. If you bounce in a Thermal just right, you can take out the trip mines
along with the guards. The mines are on the right side of the door. *If you
don't need the goodies in the room below, just go in and grab the Thermal
Dets.* The other door on this end of the room leads to the last block room
switch. Save?
>>>Block room 3rd time: Access is via the lift in the room you just killed the
two STroopers in. One new turret on the far wall. Three new turrets on the wall
with hanging blocks. And one new turret on the wall with doors. Use the
elevator in one corner to get some Thermal Dets. The block has three
Blaster-Paks, and a Large Shield Generator. Make your way back to the room
above using the lift again.<<<
Time now to go thru the pink narrow door. Save? As soon as you enter the door
will lock behind you. The blast shield in front of you will raise to expose a
STrooper. There's also a manned laser cannon at the far end of the room. Target
and kill the STrooper while strafing left to avoid getting hit by the big gun.
Hugging the left wall, move forward as far as you can. You are fairly safe
here.
There are eight more STroopers in here. (One is camped.) Crouch and shoot any
STroopers that come for you. You can also bounce shots off the force field
nearby. If you are lucky, most of the guys in here will line up and pile their
weapons at your feet. When they stop coming, strafe out to the right and back
quickly to bait any stragglers. (Mind the big gun.) Another straggler or two
may wait behind the closest crate. Toss a thermal over if you have extra. (Save
at least one for the cannon.) When it looks like you can safely move, stay
crouched and move to the crate. Save?
Back away from the crate a bit, and aim a thermal about halfway down the right
wall near the ceiling juncture. Hold the primary until it stops vibrating, and
you should take out the guy on the big gun. Jump once to see. Ease your way
down the room and take out any remaining enemies. There will be a guy camped
behind some short crates near the other turbo laser. Shoot all the small
explosives and find a switch.
It will lower the force fields and unlock the pink door you entered thru. Five
STroopers will probably enter the room shortly after the force fields go down.
So grab the closest laser cannon and save yourself some ammo. There are two
more STroopers who will probably stay in the other room. When they are gone,
explore the next room. Carefully. The switches you find will overload the
apparatus in the center of the room. Deadly laser beams will wander about.
Save?
Press the switches, then move to the right, up against the wall of the little
room the switches are in. When the beams have stabilized, crouch and move
toward the apparatus. Avoid the slightly raised areas marked by yellow stripes,
and go under the beams and thru the hole in the door. Once you go thru the
beams disappear. At the bottom of the stairs, move over to the narrow door.
Save?
When it opens you will see an Officer on the floor close to the door. Also,
some unhealthy looking green vapor floating around. Run in and quickly get the
Security Key off his body. Use it to open the door at the other end of the
hall. (Bacta.) Inside is a droid control panel. Take control of the mouse droid
and go back into the room with green air.
To the right inside the room is a droid size tunnel. Follow it to another room.
Find and press the droid height switch and head back. Near the other end of the
tunnel is a short side tunnel to the right. In it is another droid switch.
Press it for a secret. Leave the droid now and return to Kyle's body. Go into
the now safe room with dead Officers on the floor. Crouch and get close to the
Ammo Power Converter to register the secret. Then find the door around to the
left.
Behind it are eight STroopers among a bunch of hanging crystals. *These are the
last enemies in this level. There is a Shield Power Converter ahead, and there
should be at least one Large Shield Generator and a Medi-Pak or two behind.
IOW, you only need to survive this room.* Clear the room, then back-track for
health, shield generators and ammo if need be. *It is possible BTW, to get the
shield generator on the middle block in the goodie room from the block to the
right by grabbing (use button) at the end of a jump.* Make your way back here
when finished, and go thru the door at the far end of this room. Use the Shield
Power Converter, and run to the end of the tunnel to end the level.

Jan drops you in a narrow arroyo. Follow it down to where it opens up. Drop
down to where you have a decent view of the area, but not down to the level of
the landing pad. Note the search lights to the left. Being 'seen' by these will
set loose a couple of Probe Droids. Beyond the pad are some tanks and
associated piping. Above that is a fortified structure. On two higher corners
on either end of this structure are auto-turrets. Find them and take them out.
Save?
Then drop down to the rock surface the landing pad sits on. Move to the left
side but avoid the beams of the search light. Watch the lights. When they are
both moving up, hug the wall and quickly get to the door of the round structure
they are mounted on. (A meteor will rock your world momentarily.) Press the
switch inside to douse the lights. Head back up to the pad for some Blaster
Paks and a Bacta. Then follow a narrow path on the right down near the green
waters' edge to find a Bowcaster and a Large Shield Generator. Go back to the
pad and jump to the top of the lowest tank. Use the pipes to get up to the
walkway of the fortified structure. (Careful, they've been weakened by meteor
blasts.) Save?
Take the stairs up to the door on the right and knock. (Open it to announce
your presence.) Then run off the edge to land on the walkway below. Use the E11
on anyone who comes around the corner. There are five STroopers in the room,
and an Officer on the second floor. Many of the STroopers will hurry a little
too much, and fall to their deaths. *In fact you can drop down to the left
pipe, and then the center one after opening the door and four will usually fall
off. Get back close to the structure while on the pipe, or the ones that went
thru mine safety training awake may shoot you. Ease back up to the walkway
until you can snipe them, or they fall off. *
If you've heard five screams, head up and take the Officer from one of the
doorways. Otherwise, bait the rest of the STroopers outside to their end, and
then take the Officer. There's Power Cell Ammo in here, and some Medis. The
Officer has the key to the security door on the lower level. Use it and exit
the level.

>New enemy, Imperial Worker.
You will start in a hall with some Power Converters and a door. Save? In the
next room are four Officers, and three STroopers will soon enter. Left of the
door where the pipes end, is a small section of ledge you can jump up on. Open
the door from the left side, and quickly take out the Officer you can see to
the right. Jump up on the ledge I mentioned and take out anything that enters
your field of fire. (It's easier for me to get up onto the ledge by strafe
jumping while facing the door.)
Use the E11 for the ones that appear, and when things get quiet switch to the
Bowcaster. Fire a secondary round at the door jamb, and if anyone screams fire
a few more. If no one does, wait a bit then drop off the ledge. Ease the cross-
hair around the door jamb and snipe what you find. If anyone rushes you, hop
back up on the ledge and repeat what you did before.
When the room is finally clear, collect the Ammo and Supply key. Go thru the
security door and onto the elevator. Turn around to face the hall you entered
it from, and get ready to crouch thru an opening in the wall about half way
down. You'll go thru another little door into a secret area with a belt of
Thermal Dets. There's a hole in the floor and you can see three STroopers
below. Snipe one, then kill the other two from here. *If you have a det-pak,
you can get all three.*
Back away from the hole a bit and fire a shot into the floor below to get the
attention of the Officer down there. Take him out, then call the lift with the
switch at the shaft. Save? (This elevator like many mechanical things in these
mines, bites hard if don't pay attention.) Jump on as it goes by, and get off
at the bottom. Jump onto the teeny ledge on the left side of this hallway. Move
as far forward as you can. The door will open. Back up until you can snipe the
STrooper up on the catwalk, then run into the room and get behind the crates on
the left side. Head shoot the last STrooper down here, and then take a look
around.
You will find Trip Mines, and a Large Shield Generator in the lock-box. There's
also a locked door and an unlocked one. Open the one you can, then move down
the hall until the lift starts up. Duck into one of the openings between the
support pillars on the left. Four STroopers will ride the lift down. They seem
to have orders to guard the lift, and not leave it. Good for you, bad for them.
Use the corner of the support for cover, and eliminate these four. Ride the
lift up and exit. Turn left and head down the slope far enough to trigger a
patrolling STrooper in the hallway beyond. Once you see him, turn around and go
back up the slope and follow the hallway past the lift you rode up.
Go thru the door at the end of it into a room I'll call the 'ambush room.'
(Those STroopers you heard are behind blast doors, in two side rooms in here.
They are only a problem if you explore the room now, so don't.) There is a
battery off to the right if you need it. Go thru the narrow door opposite the
one you entered. Follow the catwalk around until you can see straight down the
hallway the STrooper you triggered before is patrolling. You can snipe him, or
run up behind him and bushwhack. Save?
Follow the hall he was patrolling around to a narrow door. Get to the right and
open it. Get a bead on the closest Officer and let fly with the Briar
secondary. Turn and run, taking the first left down the slope. At the bottom of
the slope turn right. Run past the hole (death) and get behind the little rock.
Wait a few seconds, then tap strafe to the right until you can target one.
Careful, the Officers can be hard to see.
When the first one's dust, wait to see if someone takes his spot. If not, move
right to target the next one. When all four are gone, get the Supply Key,
crouch and move toward the lock-box visible at the far end of this passage way.
Save? A couple steps onto the rock surface beyond the metal floor should be
enough to trigger two imperial mine workers. Back away from them onto the
metal, then move around the corner until you can't be seen. You can snipe them
from here, or sneak to the little rock again.
When they both are gone, move up to the corner where they were. Peak around the
corner and snipe the first one, then run to cover for the two or three that
follow. Repeat until it's safe to grab the Trip mines, Ammo, and the Bacta in
the lock-box. When finished, go back up to the room you cleared just before
this. There is a Bacta in here and a Shield Power converter. Hopefully, you
need neither. Save?
The ore carrier.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Go thru the first door to the right and use the power droid if need be. Watch
thru the window, but don't enter the next room. Instead, return to the main
room. At the far end of the room are two doors, go thru either and around the
corner. Drop into the hole, and watch the pipe from off to the side. If it's
open, let it close. When it opens, quickly get into it and follow it to a small
room. Calmly but swiftly, shoot the two red coils on each side of the piston,
and then the coils on the piston itself.
When the piston lowers, get on it and wait for it to rise. Move off at the top,
and make your way to the side of this room opposite the door. Save? Climb onto
the arched frame, then drop down onto the top of the next ore carrier. Crouch
as it leaves (you can stand once it clears the door). After it stops and turns
to the right, look for an opening in the rock wall on the left and jump over to
it. You will be running into huge fleas with mouths as big as they are in the
green tunnel ahead. They take large bites. Equip the bug zapper (stun baton)
and crouch.
Move up the tunnel until the first Fluda attacks. Press a trigger and hold it
while aiming at the bug, and slowly back away from it. Hold the fire button all
the way up the tunnel. Back slowly away whenever attacked. As long as no Fludas
get behind you, no harm should come. Taking the left tunnel whenever there's a
fork seems as good a path as any in here. At the top will be a self propelled
drill. Press the switch to set it in motion and follow as it bores thru the
rock. It will fall thru a hole into a large pond of molten metal. Equip a gun
and ease up to the hole.
There are four each, STroopers and workers. Work your way around the hole using
the edge as cover to clear this room. (There is some power cell ammo ahead, but
more of the blaster variety.) Save? When it's clear, shoot out the grate, and
jump on the first bus out. Drop down to walkway, and collect the stuff up here.
(Ammo, Medi-Pak.) Then ride the lift down, and find the door. (Thermal Dets.)
As soon as the door opens a worker will be visible, snipe or ambush him. Two
STroopers are visible on the catwalk above. Two more wait farther around up
there, and another worker down low. Clear the room from cover, and ride the
hammer up. (Ammo, Medi-Pak.) Head to the door and open it from the right. Move
around until you can get the STrooper inside to the left. On the lower level in
this room are three Officers and five STroopers. Stay in front of the door so
you can back thru it if necessary, and use the edge of the ledge for cover as
you clear the room. (These guys like to move. Horizontal aim, move in, shoot,
back out.)
Ride the lift down and gather up what you can. (Bacta in the lock-box, Det-
paks, and two more Bacta loose.) *Save the det-paks.* Press the only switch in
the room to open an exit. Thru the door is a hallway and another door. There
are four STroopers waiting behind it. They won't chase you, and there's nothing
to use for cover. You can open the door and try to shoot as you back away, but
may have better luck running past these guys to cover. (Crates in the room, or
supports in the hallway thru the door beyond.) Clear the room though, before
riding the lift up. There is hopefully still a large shield generator here.
(Shield management.) Save?
Take the elevator up, moving to the right front as it ascends. There will be a
STrooper at the top to the left. And a worker a bit farther away to the right.
Take out the STrooper, then the worker. Then, take out the STrooper you can see
thru the openings in the rock fall. Move down the hall past the elevator.
Behind the door at the end of the hall await six STroopers and a couple of
Fludas. Save?
Steel yourself, then run thru the room and out the narrow door. Turn right past
the door and follow the catwalk around to where you can examine the situation
thru bullet proof glass. Use the door jamb for cover, and clear the room.
'Might want to save after each successful kill? *Opening the big door while
firing, and then running back almost into the elevator also can work well.*
When you've finished, go up one of the ramps at the far end of the room. Two
auto-turrets and three Fludas are behind the second door. The Fludas are easy,
but the first turret is not. *If you can take out the right one first, you can
run into the room to the far end and the second one will shut down.* When you
are done, back track to fill up on Ammo, shield points, and health. (You can
ride an ore carrier again to get to that part of the level.) Return to this
room when done. There is a Bowcaster in one of the side rooms in here. Get on
the waiting shuttle car, then activate it to ride to the end of the level.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Artus Detention. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
You will start in the shuttle car at a station. The car offers no cover, so
quickly target the two STroopers on your level and kill them. Then drop off the
car onto the rock ledge on the left. (Or quickly jump down to the nearest rock
ledge and move to the edge of it. They won't be able to hit you thru the
platform they are on. Back up and head shoot 'em.) Save?
Jump up to the metal grating section and move toward the light post to kill the
guy up top. (He's behind glass, save your ammo.) Go up and press the switch he
was guarding. This will unlock the door below. Go back down and approach the
door to open it. There will be one STrooper close, and two behind a slit
farther on. Ease around the corner, and snipe them as they show up in your
cross-hair. Move down to the corner when you're done.
You'll see two locked doors and two slit windows. (There is a third window out
of view.) The farthest of these windows, the one out of view, has a STrooper in
it. There is also a sensor panel in the floor at that end of the room that will
open the door in the corner when you step on it. Two STroopers will come out to
investigate.
So, hug the left wall, and ease toward the third window. Crouch, and move just
far enough to snipe the STrooper in the window with a Briar shot. Then run up
to the window he was in to be behind the pillar for cover, and turn to face the
far end of the hall. Ease your cross-hair around the edge and snipe the
STroopers who came out the door.(If you came into the level with det-paks, use
one on the two Stroopers who come thru the door.) When they're gone move down
to the door they came out of.
Ease around the left door jamb to take out two kneeling STroopers inside the
door and to the left. Stay in the doorway and turn to face the Trip mines (save
these) and Det-paks (these too) in the corner. Run up to the wall with a rifle
rack by the Det-paks. Look up and back away 'til you can head shoot the guy
above. Ride the lift up for more Ammo and a Medi. Press the switch by him, and
fill up at the Ammo power converter. (Hopefully you don't need a shield charge
yet.) Go back out into the hall and move up to the door you unlocked, and open
it. Save?
The cell-block.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Move to the right and wait for a patrolling guard to show. Take him out with
one Briar shot at the end of his walk. Save? Move to the other side, and do the
same to the patroller on that side. Go out the door and work your way right
along the outside wall until you get another shot. Take him out clean, then
turn and run back past the narrow door you came in. You'll see a big door past
it on the left, run thru it and get behind the crates in the corner. Crouch and
wait a few seconds, then turn toward the door and stand.
You are not completely safe here, but pretty close. The farther away and the
higher the enemy, the higher the chance of you being hit. Stay close to the
crate for optimum cover. Head shots, anyone? When it's clear head up the
stairs. There will be another STrooper about halfway up to kill. Open the door,
then run for the crates. (I prefer to not use Thermals, or even shoot, it will
go quicker.) Get behind them and crouch until the door to your right closes.
Stand up and pick a good spot on the stairs. Try to get them as they come
around the corner.
If they run away just wait, they usually come back. (It may take a while.)
There are four STroopers, and an Officer. (Shoot the Officer last, it will go
quicker.) Go back up the stairs and grab some stuff if need be. (Ammo, Medis.)
Go thru the door and turn left. Run right by the next door close enough to open
it, and continue around and back down thru the next door. Get behind the crates
again.
Two STroopers will show up soon. Go back up and enter the stairwell the two
were guarding. There will be a STrooper kneeling about halfway up. At the top
of the stairs you will see some Trip mines, Ammo, a Medi and another door.
(Save these trip mines.) Behind this door are two Officers and six STroopers.
Five to the left, three to the right. Two more STroopers stand guard farther
around on this level. Before you open the door, shoot it, and someone should
comment.
You can open the door and run for the crates. Or snipe one of these guys from a
lower level to get their attention, and then run for the crates. Take out as
many as come down, from the safety of the crates. Then make your way back up to
the door beyond the last one you opened. Watch for sniping opportunities on the
way, and be ready to retreat to the crates. (In general, the ones who didn't
run after you will now be stationary.)
Behind this next door are two kneeling STroopers at the very bottom. Open the
door from the left and ease around the door jamb for easy kills. There will be
another standing about halfway to the top. At the top of this stairwell an R5
will be working on a panel that the LBoDs waiting beyond the door have been
using for target practice. (They won't show up until you cross the threshold of
the door.) You can bait these guys down to the crates but they take forever to
get down there. And they're tougher to shoot from there than the STroopers and
Officers. Save?
So, equip your trip mines. Get in the center of the doorway, then cross the
threshold to bring up the droids. Back into the stairwell, dropping a mine just
outside the door as you go. Strafe to the right when you're back inside, then
turn to face the door. *You will need two trip mines shortly, so save at least
two for after the droids are gone.* Be in a position to run up and drop another
mine in the center of the doorway, but just inside. If you're lucky, you'll get
two with the first one you plant.
If one or two droids come in around the mine, run up and put one in front of
(and between if two got in) it/ them, and back away from them. If the first one
went off, run up and quickly plant another, centered and just inside. Within a
few tries you should be able to kill them all.
Another method is to use the bug zapper on them, believe it or not. Hold the
fire button down, and get close enough to see electricity. Try to keep the one
you're attacking between you and the rest. Don't stop moving until they are all
dead... non functioning. With a little practice you can take them all out with
little or no loss of shield points. One mine in the doorway, and then the bug
zapper is another permutation to try. *BTW, they can't fire when you are in
their face, or when under the influence of the baton's charge. And they are
lousy at leading a strafing target.*
When you've been successful with this, go outside the stairwell and go right
until you see the next door. Save? There are two more LBoDs guarding it. Hit
the first one from behind with a secondary Briar. It will go down in one. Head
back thru the door you came out of and fire up the bug zapper again. Get off to
the right side of the door so it closes. When the droid comes in, rush in and
stay in its face until it explodes. Save?
Head on to the next door. The one they were guarding. Approach from the left.
The first STrooper is just inside. Ease around the corner and pop him in the
head a couple times. Note the locked door. The next one is up the stairs a bit.
Strafe in, then quickly target and eliminate him. Save?
The next two are at the top of the stairs, one around a corner. Move up a long
the outside wall until you just see the first, then use the binocs to set up a
Briar shot. The other will have been alerted, but won't come down. Hug the
right wall, and move up toward the corner. Save? Move up slowly and when he
jumps out, let fly with E11 secondary while backing away. You should get him
without taking damage by the second or third reload. Save? (There is a chance
one or more Officers will rush you when he falls, punt or load your last save.)
Next are the three Officers in the control room. Crouch and strafe along the
wall opposite the entrance until you can watch these three. Equip the trip
mines and when it's safe, move into the hall leading into the room and put one
on the floor in the center. Back out of there before you are spotted, and head
down the stairs. Put another on the wall low enough to jump over. Move into the
corner up top where you can target the stationary Officer. Take him out quickly
with your fav. weapon and run down the stairs. (Remember to jump.) Turn around
at a safe distance, and head back up once the mines have done their thing.
Inside the room are two switches and a surveillance station. There's also some
Ammo and Medi-Paks. Press the switches and use the cameras. The switches
activate the fan in the central air shaft, and unlock a door out in the
stairwell. Find the door and go thru it. Just around the first corner is an
auto-turret on the ceiling. Target and destroy it. Move under it and start down
the glass hall until stuff happens. Shoot the STrooper when he appears, then
check out the room to the right. *A couple of Power Converters. (Shield
generators are just ahead.)* Walk toward the prisoner out in the hall now for a
conversation.
Find the Base Commander.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you get your legs back, follow him to the doorway and watch him and his
buddies kill some STroopers in a hangar. Then scour the room for loot. (Bacta,
Small Shield Generators, Ammo, Batteries, Medi-paks.) When you can't carry
anything else, find a lift to get up on the catwalks above. Get to the left
side of the door that you find up here. Three STroopers are inside, ease around
the door jamb sniping as you go. At the far end go thru the door and then cross
the bridge to unlock the next one.
Then from the bridge, shoot out the grate to the side and jump across. Enter
the pipe and follow it to a lift. Ride it up, and jump down the hole. This is
the central air shaft. You'll fall slowly because of the updraft created by the
fan you turned on before. As you float down look for a grate sticking out above
the fan. Aim for it, and press forward until after you land on it. Follow the
short pipe to a round rock-walled room. Turn left inside the room and shoot the
second grate for a secret. Keep going right until you see another open grate.
Save?
Equip the baton as you follow the Fluda in. Fire it up and kill the Fludas that
attack as you follow this pipe. Jump out of it into greenish darkness once
again. Fluda habitat. Hug the right wall and head out, crouched and ready for
Fluda. Follow the right wall to the top, going slow enough as not to pass any
Fludas. When you see the grey opening turn around in case you're being
followed. ;] Enter this cubby hole and listen to the Fluda feed. Save?
A Fluda will usually attack from the left as you enter this next room (_your_
room.) Kill the other two and look around. (Ammo, Bacta, a Large Shield
Generator, more Batteries, and assorted explosives.) Stay away from the door
until you're ready to fight. When your done look for _cover_. *I used the two
crates closest the hole. If you choose to do the same, you'll have to watch
your left side. Any STroopers that head up there will have to be watched and
taken out first. They may move if winged so use the Briar secondary if they
aren't firing.*
Put a trip mine on the stairs to the left, and move to the door. There three
STroopers on the other side, take one out as the door opens. Then get behind
your cover and finish the other two. Head out the door when it's over. There
will be a door to the left (door1,) and one to the right(door2.) And a window
to the right of that. Shoot the guy in the window. Then turn back and go thru
the door1.
There will be a narrow door to the left, and a bigger locked door straight
ahead. There are two STroopers behind the narrow door. Kill them. (I threw a
thermal in slightly left of the closest one's knees, from the left side of the
door.) Press the switch inside to unlock the bigger door (to the hangar,) and
another door to the Commander's room. (Beyond door2.) Grab what you can (Ammo,
Medi) and go back to _your_ room. Mine the stairs again, and exit.
Go to door2 this time, and toss a det-pak into the room as far as you can. Run
for _cover_, triggering the det-pak as you enter _your_ room. Kill whoever
follows, then check out the room behind door2. *If no one came to the party you
just gave, wait before congratulating yourself for superior demolitions
expertise.
Check behind door1 first. If someone's there quickly kill him and head back to
cover. His buddies may have bolted to a stairway off the room behind door2. If
so they are now on the way.* When you're sure the second room is clear, go back
to it and nose around, but don't open any doors. (Ammo, a Medi, Shield Power
Converter.)
There are two more doors in here. A narrow one down a ramp, and a big one near
the Converter. Open the big door and ease around the door jamb. Cleanly kill
the first STrooper, and head for _cover_. Two STroopers will follow. When
they're dead go back to the stairs and take out the two left at the top. Now go
back and down the ramp, and thru the narrow door.
Escort the Base Commander.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*There's a switch in here that opens a door leading back to the hangar.* Target
the commander and he will walk to and up the stairway you just cleared. Turn
away from him at the top. There's some Ammo and a Medi here. Save? When he gets
close to the switch up here, he presses it, unlocking the door. A dying
STrooper will back into the hall followed by a large number of Fludas. The
Commander must live to press another switch, so protect him.
*I backed against the wall facing the door and charged up a secondary Thermal.
Then I targeted him until he started for the switch. As soon as the door
opened, in went the Thermal, followed by another a second later. I then
crouched near him bug zapper humming away, and buzzed in the general direction
of the Fludas until he was safe.* Save.
Shoot the officer with the Briar primary until he dies, then load the last
save. Shoot him again, once less than last time. Target him again. He'll enter
the room (Ammo, and a Medi) and head for a switch just past the windows. Just
after he passes the windows but before he presses the switch, un-target him.
Put a trip mine on the window close to, but behind him. And another on the
steps on the other side of the room directly opposite the first one. Then drop
a det-pak in front of the locked door. Careful, now. Make your way to the
unlocked door. Back out of it, then target him until he heads for the switch.
Strafe left a bit so he can't see you and watch the other door.
The mines should take care of him while you trigger the det-pak as the
STroopers enter the room. Equip a firearm and clean up if necessary, then back-
track to fill up. When you get back, go thru the newly unlocked door. There are
two STroopers below, snipe 'em. Then ride the lift down. There are some Trip
Mines in the corner, and a door.
There will be four STroopers in the next room, two at the far end and one on
each side of the door close. Save? Open the door from the middle. Target one of
the far guards and kill him quickly. Run toward where he was, shooting out the
large low grate as you approach it. Crouch and enter the hole. If you need to
use the Power Converters in the room, kill the three remaining guys from here.
Find a pipe to drop into, and end the level.

You'll be in poop-storm right off the bat. Turn around and go straight for the
Turbo-laser. (Every second counts here.) Consider adjusting the sensitivity up
for this next part. Mount the Turbo-laser and quickly aim up at the ramparts
and start firing at the guys high and on the right. The guys that target you
will generally be over in this area.
Three guys will come out a door at ground level between you and the ramparts.
Quickly target and kill them once they have all come out. Then move the cross-
hair back up to where you were firing before. If you get caught up with the
guys targeting you, target the guys hammering the prisoners the worst. (Usually
way left.) Watch the Biig door. As soon as the ST is visible, it's the new
target, nothing else.
Hold down the fire button, using too much ammo isn't a problem, getting hit too
much is. Restart if it goes bad. *It's as much of an AI fight between the
prisoners and the Imperials as it is a test of your skill. Keep rolling the
dice and getting better with the big gun until it finally works out.*
Dismount the turbo laser and run to right wall inside the hangar the ST came
out of. Move to edge of the hangar door. Face the turbo laser, then tap strafe
back out into the canyon until you can see all three lights on the structure to
the left of the turbo laser. Zoom in with the binocs on the door below the
lowest light. STrooper to snipe.
Head to where the STrooper was. There's an Officer left in the room he came out
of. Kill him from the door jamb. There are some Thermal Dets in the room, take
them but save them for later. (There's another unlocked door up a ramp in this
area. It contains a lock-box (Large Shield Generator) but you have no key.) Go
to the door and shoot the three STroopers below (careful, they're inaccurate
but can hit you), then press the switch back inside to summon the large lift.
Ride it down. To the right is the lower control room for the lift. There's an
Officer and STrooper inside. Save? A carefully bounced thermal or two will take
care of them. (The Officer has a Supply Key for the lock box back on the other
side.) Move out into canyon to bait four STroopers that are standing a little
ways off. Retire to the safety of the lower control room window to watch them
line up. Snipe them from the door way. Save? Usually only three will follow.
Move out into the canyon and snipe the fourth.
Out in the canyon, you'll start taking very inaccurate fire from high up on the
far end. *Their fire is inaccurate, but again, it can hit you. So use the left
edge of the canyon for cover.* Use the binocs to target and snipe these two.
Your point of impact will change at this distance for some reason. It may even
change between the two STroopers. So line up a head shot with the binocs and
then fire the Briar. Follow the shot in with the binocs. (Hold the left and
right triggers as you charge the Briar, then release the left trigger and tap
the Y button while continuing to hold the right trigger.) Adjust your aim,
repeat. Save?
Head up the canyon next until you see or hear STroopers. Turn and get back to
the control room for another round of sniping 'round the door jamb. You'll
probably have to bait these guys twice. Save? Now it's down the canyon and thru
the hangar door at the far end. An ST and a couple of STroopers will come out
of the hangar as you approach. Run by them on the right and into the hangar,
and thru the narrow door to the right. Save?
Inside the hangar side room is a lift. Ride it up and move to the door. Charge
your Briar and open the door from the right side. Ease closer until you see the
STroopers to the left. Quickly target and fire on the largest target. Then move
back inside to the left of the door. There are three STroopers out there, the
two you saw, and another farther to the left. They tend to end up moving
constantly between two points. (If you wing the first one, he will usually end
up stationary near the door.)
Ease around door jam until the first is visible. If he's moving, it's easiest
to toss a secondary thermal out timed to catch him. The second one will be
moving toward you and away, farther around to the left. He's an easy shot with
the Briar. Save? Fill up at the Shield Power Converter if it's prudent. (If you
want the secret (Bacta, Trip Mines, and a Large Shield Generator) go up the
little steps to the right. Then follow the ledge to a grate. The secret's
inside. Mind the ST and STroopers below.)
Now head toward the Ion cannon. There is a kneeling STrooper behind the low
wall left of the crates. Go up to the wall and look down. Easy kill. Now jump
on the turbo laser and take out the STrooper just to the right of the far Ion
cannon. Save?
Next you will have to make it to the door past the far Ion cannon. Time your
crossing of the cannon catwalks to avoid being shocked. Hug the wall as much as
possible. The ST will be taking pot shots. At the far end, crouch and approach
the door from the left. *As soon as you get past the last electrified catwalk,
standing up will invite ST fire.* Snipe the two guys you find inside. There's
another around the corner to the right, kneeling. Bounce a thermal his way.
There are Ammo, Bactas, and a Medi-pak in here. Save?
Run out the door and mount the turbo laser. Swing it around and get your
_horizontal_ aim on the ST, then dismount and go back thru the door. Wait until
the explosions subside, then run back out and mount it again. The gun will save
your horizontal aim, but not the vertical. So start firing while lowering. Fire
until you see the ST target you, then dismount and head for the room. It should
take two or three rinse and repeats to take out the ST. Save whenever you've
'done good.'
Ease around the next door and snipe the STrooper and turret in the short
hallway. Save? The next door has the best cover blocked. You can get in close
to the left side quarter round and be safe. Taking out the two STroopers can be
a little tricky from there though. If you crouch and move across quick, the
first may stay stationary. Ease around and snipe him, then strafe left. If they
start moving a thermal is the way to go. (Strafing over for a charged shot from
the Bowcaster also works well.)
Ease into the doorway while looking down below. Two STroopers will beg for head
shots. There's one at the far wall, so crouch, go thru the door and get to the
wall. Use the pop up and fire technique to take this one. Then ease up and use
the edge for cover with the remaining ones down there. One Officer and six
STroopers total. *The Officer usually hides. Look for a red cross-hair near the
center ST, then bounce a couple Bowcaster rounds into him.*
The next door is booby trapped, jump over the trip mine. (Ammo, and a Medi.)
The next room up here has a Shield Power Converter. Ride the lifts down to the
hangar floor. (Trip mines and Det-paks, Large Shield Generator in the lock-
box.) Save two trip mines, and two det-paks for later. Check out the narrow
door down here. Seems they have blocked the left-hand corner again. Save?
There's just enough room however. Run into the spot between the door and
support beam on the left side. Use the Briar secondary. Many of these guys (two
Officers (Supply Key) and six STroopers) will move into one of two spots you
can target from here. Strafe out and back if it slows down. When no more come,
ease around the door jamb and finish the room. (Ammo, and a Medi-pak.) Back
track to get your health and shields up to max. Save?
The next door has a double recess which makes it tough to use the left door jam
for cover. (Tough room.) There four Officers in here. Two are tough, two are
extra tough. You should be at or near full health and shield. There is nothing
hard between you and the end of this level, except this room. The next level
starts a new game as far as health and shield are concerned. You only have to
survive this room. Unlock the door from the right side, without opening it.
Equip the E11. Adjust your vertical aim to chest high. Approach the door from
the center and open it.
>>>If someone is visible, try loading the save before the room just before
this. Make any sense? Look for *Save?* up the page a bit. Play thru the room
before this one and see if this room plays different. (Probably not.) I
remember two times when this happened. I'm not sure why it does, somehow they
are alerted. *All the others (a few) had no one visible when I opened the door.
(No one alerted, making the room much easier.)*
I reloaded the last save until I got the first guy in the head with a Briar
shot while strafing across the doorway. The others were agitated, and would
stand in front of the door once in awhile. I had the head shot aim dialed, and
just kept opening the door from the center with a charged Briar. If someone was
there I strafed for a red cross-hair if necessary and let fly. E-11 secondary
will also work, but aim high for head shots. These guys have shields. It is a
much tougher room this way.<<<
If no one is visible, slowly sweep the room with your cross-hair. You should
get two momentary reds, one at either side of the power conduits in the middle
of the room. Equip the thermal dets. Move forward enough to safely toss
thermals to each side of the structure. One or two well placed thermals
(depending on the type of Officer) will finish these two. Save? Ease your
cross-hair around the left door jamb until you find the third Officer. Guess at
where his head is, then hold down the E11 primary until he falls. If nothing
happens, adjust your aim just a hair and try again.
The fourth one is to the right. Either rush him, or run in and drop a det-pak a
few feet inside the door then back out. Bait him to get him moving if
necessary, then trigger it when he's near it. A thermal bounced close to him
will also work, but is a tough toss to make. Save?
There is Ammo, a Medi-pak and a Shield Power Converter in
the room. And the switch to shut down the Ion cannon shields. Don't press it
until you set up a warm welcome for the Officers and STroopers that are sure to
respond.
Go back out into the hangar, and ride a corner lift up. Place a det-pak on the
pillar in the corner of the lift. Place it while crouched and close to the
pillar while the lift is at the upper level. Do the same for the other lift.
Then trip mine the floor just outside both doors on your way back to the
switch. Equip a gun, and press the switch. Strafe by the door to open it, and
get things rolling.
The trip mines should take out all three STroopers who come for you. (One may
freeze in the next room, snipe him.) Equip the det-pak and run into the hangar.
Trigger the explosives just after (one sec.) you pass thru the door. There
shouldn't be any clean up needed, but switch to the E-11 anyway. Replenish your
trip mines and det-paks if they are still here in the hangar, and ride a corner
lift up to the ST access catwalk. Save?
Call the lift in the center and get on. Four STroopers will be entering the
room from the direction of the Ion cannons by the time the lift reaches the
top. Go the opposite way thru the door. Snipe them from the doorway. Head to a
turbo laser and blow up the Ion cannons.
Now go back to the hangar where three STroopers will try to foil your escape.
They will appear as you enter the hangar. Get to the first little room before
they start firing. Snipe them from the door. You need to go the way they came,
but the door they came out of has an auto-turret on the ceiling. The room
beyond that is safe. (Ammo, and a Medi-pak.)
You'll see the telltale sign of a trip mine at the entrance to the next room.
There's also a turret high to the right inside. (Ammo Power Converter) And five
more mines block your way once in the room. *The three at the end make for a
very strong blast.* Out the door and up the steps lies the end of the level.
(Medi-paks to fake you out.)

Find the front door of the bar and enter. You'll be stripped of your weapons at
the door. Save? You'll be free to roam most of the first floor. Your access to
a ramp leading to the second floor will be blocked. As will access to the
kitchen. You'll find a room with a Shield Power Converter, behind and to the
left of a cockfight pit. When you have a feel for the area, select force speed
and belly up to the bar. The bartender will recommend a _Ruby Bliels_.
When the cut scene's over, use force speed to run to the room with the
converter. Once inside, face the doorway and select pull. Wait to see if anyone
shows up. Sometimes many do, and other times none. If a kamikaze Gran with
thermals shows up, quickly pull him down and finish him with a top-down hack or
saber throw. These Gran are the main threat in the bar for now. If you're
lucky, they both will fall into the pit. They can still hit you from there if
you get to close, however.
If it's a Rodian that comes, move in close and he'll either skewer himself or
die by ricochet. Move out of the room into the hall when they quit coming to
the door. They will usually stop at the corner by the pit and fire from there
while you're in the hall. (If they don't fall in the pit.) For the Weequay,
Rodians, and the Gran with a rifle, time a force pull between shots (or volleys
of shots) then finish with the saber. Save whenever you make a kill without
taking damage. When they stop coming, use force speed then select push.
Run into the kitchen and push the center reefer(?) (bookshelf-shaped rectangle)
on the far wall. It will reveal a secret room. (Two Bactas and some Power Cell
Ammo.) Run inside and fight from the left side of the doorway if possible. Use
the left edge for cover and kill the enemies that get close to the door with
saber throws if they can't hit you. If their fire is getting by the doorway
edge, time a force pull and finish with a saber throw. When two are firing line
them up and let their rounds work for you. It should be over soon. Save?
Check the _lower_ level for stragglers. Then clear out the pit and grab the
weapons. @Option2. Go over to one of the recessed booths. Aim at the table and
the little hand will appear. Press the use button to open another secret area.
(Large Shield Generator, Bacta, and Thermal Dets.) Follow the ramp that leads
up to a door. Select force push and open it. Push the kneeling sniper to the
floor and saber him. You're done killing for a bit. (The bar room can play out
many different ways. You may be better off loading the first save of the level
if you are having trouble.)
Head up the ramp behind the Rodian you just killed and find the office. Up a
short flight of stairs are your weapons. And a switch to raise the metal
curtain around the bar. Press it and go back downstairs. Grab the two Bactas
behind the bar and press the switch. The switch opens all the doors to the
outside. As soon as the cut scene ends, a Rodian with a Disruptor will enter
the upper door into the bar. So quickly back away from the switch, and run to
the left and underneath him. Back into the room until you can shoot him in his
cute little head.
Outside.
~~~~~~~~~
Go back into the kitchen. Around the corner at the bottom of the ramp is a
door. Open it and kill the Weequay that comes thru it. Step outside and turn
left. Back up to the wall and aim at the elevated walkway on the building to
the right. Zoom in with the Disruptor and find three eyes. Charge up a shot and
disrupt the Gran. Head back inside to the door on the second floor.
There is a Gran with thermals on the far side of the street outside the door.
(Disruptor Rifle and some Ammo in the corner.) Strafe from cover to take him
out. Switch to third person view. Then move into the doorway to a spot directly
under the door. Turn, and move up to the left door jamb. Use the third person
camera to look around the corner.
You'll see a Rodian close on the walkway outside, and beyond him a building.
Above the door are three windows and an open area with a crate to the right of
the windows. One sniper is easy to see in the left window. There is another
harder to see in the right window. Equip the Briar and ease out until you can
just see the whole open area with a crate.
Put the cross-hair on the top edge of the crate, then move _it_ left until it
turns red. (This is much easier with the sensitivity turned all the way down.)
Charge up a secondary shot and let it fly. When the cross-hair is white again,
ease out until you can just see the entire middle window. Find and kill the
other sniper. Then ease out a bit more and do the same to the Rodian on the
walkway close to you.
Head back downstairs and go out the front door, turn right and go to the corner
of the bar. Go around the corner to the left, and down to the next corner of
this building. There is a Rodian sniper directly above, on the walkway with red
lights. Save?
Turn left, then back away from the walkway while looking up until you can head
shoot him. (Watch that hole, you should be right next to it.) Go back to the
bar the way you came. Once you're back at the second floor door, move out onto
the walkway and turn left. Run almost to the corner but stop short. Push,
saber, or shoot the Rodian who runs up. Save?
Turn to the right check out the round looking little building across the way.
There's a Weequay patrolling the walkway around it. Snipe him with the
Disruptor. Around the corner you will see a bridge to far side. When you
approach the bridge, two Weequay will come for you from the door on the other
side of the bridge. Equip the saber for protection, and run to the bridge. Face
these guys and see what happens. They will usually do at least half your work
for you. Finish the job with the force and the saber if need be. Save?
Inside the room across the bridge a Bomber Gran waits by a hole in the ceiling.
Snipe him. Press the switch in the corner to bring down the lift. A couple of
Weequay will be on it. Keep them both in front of you and it should work out
OK. Save?
Ride the lift up, and get off without going thru the broken glass. The wall is
cracked next to the lift. When you move past the glass wall into the room, a
Weequay and a Bomber Gran will blow the wall and come out. Back up until the
wall goes, then move forward. Give the Weequay a push, and then quickly move in
and push the Gran. Kill the Gran before he gets up, then take out the Weequay.
Save? *A well-timed det-pak on the floor near the wall can take them both out
if you have one.* (Ammo and Thermal Dets.)
Enter the room they came out of (Bacta) and go thru the door in the corner. Use
speed, then run thru the next door and kill the Rodian. Go back inside to the
room with holes in the floor, and push the crate (and the Rodian behind it) off
the ledge. The crate is hollow, so... Stepping out the doorway here will
trigger a Sniper across the street, so go back thru the other room.
Go thru the two doors and out onto the ledge. Move up near the corner, but not
past it. Jump across to the balcony next door, and quickly go thru the door to
the left. Turn right as soon as you enter the room, and smack into a wall.
Use the door jamb for cover and take out the Rodian sniper across the street.
He likes to move around, and can be tough to snipe. Use third person view to
look around the door jamb safely. Then try to find him with the cross-hair. If
he isn't visible, strafe out into the doorway and back. When he is no more,
move into the room while hugging the right wall. Save?
There are a Gran and a Rodian above you, so stay near the wall. Break the glass
and use the Disruptor to make short work of these two. Switch to the saber and
cut thru the two cowardly boxes. Grab the stuff if you need it (Large Shield
Generator and a Battery) and cut the lock off the door. Go back thru the hole
in the boxes and out the front door.
Ease up the ramp until you can snipe the Bomber Gran above. Then move up some
more to get the Weequay on the landing. Walk up the ramp and over to where the
Gran was. Move over toward the balcony but not onto it. Use the third person
camera to look down the street. Below is a brightly lit small ledge with
another Rodian waiting to snipe you. Use the post for cover, and snipe him
first.
Go thru the door up here and grab what you need. (Trip mines, and Ammo.) The
door inside leads down to the ledge above the boxes. (Bacta) Save? Make your
way to the lower balcony, and jump up onto the railing. You need to jump down
to the glass roof below. Aim for a beam or you'll fall thru the glass and hurt
yourself. Break the glass to fall into the room. (Bacta and a Small Shield
Generator.) Before you press the switch, head outside and zoom in on the glass
bridge up the street.
Wait a bit and a Weequay should walk by. He's walking on a _breakable glass_
floor. Any ideas? Head back in and press the switch. It extends a bridge to the
far side. Leave the room and head to the right. Kill the Weequay guarding the
lift. Go thru the door and push the box onto the floor switch to bring down the
lift. (Ammo.) Push the box off the switch and ride to the top. Get off the lift
and kill the Weequay around the corner.
Press the switch to lower a ramp in here. Now put your back against the wall
opposite the switch, and zoom in on the boat hanging near the left side of the
glass bridge. (You'll need to be close to the edge.) Look around a bit, and you
will find a wee bit of a Rodian to disrupt. There is another one that can't be
seen from here. Don't go up the ramp right now, or you'll trigger the boat to
drop. Instead, take the lift back down, and _run_ across the bridge and into
the little building with a glass roof.
Turn around to face the glass bridge and hanging boat. Strafe to the right wall
and back up until you can see the boat. Zoom in and look around. You should
find enough Rodian up there for another Disruptor shot. Equip your saber and
select speed. Save? Go back up to where you pressed the last switch, and run
(speed) up the narrow ledge. Stop short of the corner, and quickly use the
camera to look around it.
When the Rodian has turned and is walking away, rush in for the kill. (Ammo.)
Look down thru the skylight into the room and wait for the Weequay to walk by.
(If he's been alerted, he may be stationary, go ahead and drop in.) Quickly
jump up onto the skylight and move forward until you are over the block. Crouch
and hack the glass to fall thru. (Bacta) Remain crouched and move forward
enough to head shoot the Rodian, or toss a thermal at him. Next find the
Weequay and kill him. *Avoid the half of the block closest to the boat.* When
the room is clear, drop off side of the block farthest from the boat. Save?
Move up until you can see all three windows. (Ammo and two small Shield
Generators.) Run to the corner between the two windows to the right. Break the
glass if it's there, and snipe the three guys in the little scow. (Ammo.) There
is a door in here, and behind it a lift. It leads only to a couple of secret
areas, and the associated goodies. *Secret #3: Two Large Shield Generators,
Det-Paks, Power Cell Ammo, and two Bacta. Secret #4: Two Bacta, Ammo, a Shield
Power Converter, and an Ammo Power Converter.* Two or three more enemies will
also be triggered. If you need or want the stuff,
>>>ride the lift up and go thru the door. Once in awhile there will be a Gran
behind the door, but usually not. If so pull him, and finish with a saber
throw. There is a Rodian on the next building, just around the end of the entry
way and to the right. Strafe out, throw a fully charged secondary thermal,
strafe in, adjust aim and repeat if necessary. Speed helps. Move to the corner
and look around it.
There's a Gran in the middle of the bridge. When you kill him, the bridge will
blow. Save? Before you jump the gap in the bridge, move to the next corner.
Ease your cross-hair around it and take out the Rodian. Go back to the bridge
and jump across. As soon as you get to the wall on the other side, look up to
the left. Jump up onto the sloping ledge, and from there to the wide bridge.
The stuff you seek is in plain view. Drop back down, go around the corner where
you last killed a Rodian, and move to the end of the walkway. You can see the
secret area way down there to the left of the bar.
You'll be jumping to the tops of the lights, and then to the tops of door
frames. Then dropping down to the walkways. At the bottom, jump to the top of
the little building and then to the secret area. From there, jump to the
walkway in front of the bar, and make your way back up to the skylight room.<<<
If not (or if you're back,) run out the man-sized window and land on the ledge
below. Get yourself over close to the moving scow and prepare to jump on. Then
jump from the boat to the ledge with a door. It will open to another lift.
*Time the jump to land on the boat at when it's closest to you. It's best to
jump a hair early, rather than late. The far end of the boat is actually a
small solid platform, although it looks hollow. Jump up on it, then make the
second jump.*
Ride the lift up and walk onto the glass bridge. There are a couple of Det
charges on one of the bridge beams that will go off when approach, so shoot
them now. On the other side (Thermal Dets.) you'll see an explosive crate,
shoot it and enter the hole it made. Saber the electrical conduit in the corner
to make the water outside safe.
Out by the water is a locked door with an un extended bridge underneath. Pull
the bridge out and jump onto it. With the third person camera you can see a
Weequay up in the corner. Toss a thermal his way. After the scream subsides,
hop on up there. (There is another secret across the street. You will have to
jump to it from the top of the bridge, and jump back. (Two Bacta, a Battery,
and a Large Shield Generator.))
There is a switch and an R5 unit up here. Also a grate above the ledge to the
right of the switch. Ignore the switch and push the R5 into the street. You'll
need to jump onto the panel the R5 removed next to the switch. (Put Kyle's
right shoulder to the wall and move to the panel. Turn him toward the wall a
few degrees. Press jump, and _then_ tap forward to land on the piece of metal.)
Turn around and jump up to the ledge. Smash the grate and enter the duct.
Follow it to another grate, and smash it then enter the larger duct. (Thermal
Dets, and Det-Paks.) Walk down the slope to a T in the duct. To the left is
nothing, but will register the secret. To the right is an explosive crate to
clear the way to the garbage barge you need to ride. And also Ammo, Bacta, a
Battery, and a Large Shield Generator. The mystery Gran may show up on a
walkway above and start tossing Thermals. Hey,...
Shoot the explosives, and then drop to the barge. Select push and keep your
eyes open. When the barge stops, use force push on the little traffic light on
the left side of the doorway to turn it blue. Do the same at the next door.
Ride the barge to the end of the level.

You'll be on the barge. As soon as it stops, run to the front of it and jump up
to the pipes. Jump from there up to the ledge above. Secret area. (Shield Power
Converter, Ammo Power Converter, two Bacta.) Make your way down to the floor.
>>>If you fall onto the conveyor, you can destroy the bars on the open side to
get out. You can get back up to the secret from the conveyor, but it's easier
just to die and restart at this point. You may want to get back to the secret
area later. From the ledge above the top part of the conveyor, you can jump up
to the pipes. You will have to crouch at the top of the jump to make it, and
aim the jump to avoid the overhang above the ledge you jump from. It's not
easy, but doable.<<<
There's another Bacta in the corner. @Extra1. Go thru the door and "sniff"
around. There's a bunch of Gran on the walkways above. Head straight down the
center of the room. The second garbage masher to the left has no bin under the
chute. Jump up onto a ledge inside the chute. *The chute is sloped into the
masher so don't jump real hard and don't press forward too much.* Run thru the
masher and out the other side. There's Bacta, and Ammo in the corner of the
masher. (Tough to get.) There's also a Bacta near the door to the next room.
Go just thru the door and stop to check things out. There's a Rodian behind a
slit to the right. You can get a Disruptor shot targeted without being seen. A
Gran patrols the walkway above. The Gran can be sniped at the far end of the
walkway as he crosses in front of you. It's easier though to just throw a
secondary thermal at the ceiling above him, as he goes by overhead. Use his
shadow for a reference. Save?
The way across the crates is fairly obvious. You can jump all the gaps, or just
run off the edge for the lower ones. (Bacta and a Large Shield Generator.)
*There is a short-cut early on, if you don't need the stuff in the corner.*
There will be a box in your way above that can be pulled. You end up in a hall
that takes you around to the catwalk the Gran was on. (Thermal Dets, and Ammo
to the left.)
The catwalk leads to another hall, and then a short tunnel. Pull the garbage
bin towards you, and head back the way you came. (There's a Small Shield
Generator around the corner from the bin.) When you reach the far side of the
catwalk, look down to see the entrance below you. Drop down. You'll have to go
back thru the trash compactor.
Turn right out of the trash compactor, and head straight for the door after you
drop from the chute. Run thru it, into the room where this level began. Save?
(If you haven't heard or felt any thermals from the Gran up on the walkways
while you were out among the trash compactors, you may want to run around out
there until you do. Letting them see you will save some baiting later on.
You're pretty safe as long as your moving. When you're sure they've seen you,
come back here.)
Go back out the door, turn right and go around the corner to the left. Then go
thru the first door to the right. Run past the Rodians behind the slits on
either side. Shoot the explosives to blow a hole in the wall. Ease over toward
the hole and you'll get a shot at a Rodian. Then move thru the hole into the
room. There's another Rodian around the corner to the left. He's probably
looking away, but will turn around slowly when you see him. Thermal, snipe,
speed and saber, it's your choice but kill him. Use the slot to snipe the one
on the other side of the door. (Or shut the slit with the switch, but you'll
have to kill him later.)
Go back out into the room before this one. Slash the crates in the corner that
can be destroyed. Move around next to the wall and find the hidden panel. (The
little hand will appear.) Press use to open a panel, then enter the secret
room. Move to the far end and climb the crates. Follow the crates to the other
end (Det-Paks) and drop down. Large Shield Generator, and a Bacta. Press the
switch to lower the glass, and step thru. Turn right and find the single box in
the corner that can be pulled.
It covered a hole, crouch and go thru it. A short hall leads to a T. Kill the
Rodian to the left, and then follow the tunnel to another movable trash bin.
Push this one to expose a glowing conveyor. (Hot.) *There is a secret area
above the hall just before you get to the trash bin. (Large Shield Generator.)*
You need to get into the trough to the left of conveyor. Save?
Tap-jump to it, or just run across and drop into it. (Force jumps are bad news
in here.) Get to the far end of the trough as soon as you are in it. Break the
glass in the window across the way, then move right until you can snipe the
Rodian guarding the switch. Then use push on the switch to open the door. Run
or jump across and enter the room. (Ammo.)
The gauntlet.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Follow the hall to the corner and look down the next leg. It's dark but you
should be able to make out a closed slit. There are three Gran bombers above
the room the slot faces, and a Rodian behind the slit. Select and use speed,
then select push or pull and run thru the room. Angle left when you enter, then
turn right just before the tunnel entrance in the far corner of the room. Turn
right again to be face to face with the Rodian sniper. Kill him quick.
Then go into the tunnel and turn around. Crouch and ease back into the room you
just ran thru. (Hug the right wall.) There are three holes in the ceiling, each
with a Gran. The farthest will offer the first sniping opportunity as you
slowly move toward the entryway. Next will be the hole next to it. The last
hole is right above the entryway.
This guy has a sixth sense. While still crouched in first person view, ease
forward until you can see about half of the hole, then bounce a fully charged
thermal off the edge of the hole and up into the Gran. Turn and head down the
tunnel. (You can also just leave these Gran. You will have to kill one later, a
snipe from the door to the password room. Easier, but you won't get the goodies
they have. (Bacta and thermals.)) Save?
There are three pulpits with slots along the right wall. If you killed the
Rodian snipers earlier while getting the third secret, just walk by them. (If
not, equip the E11 and approach them slowly while hugging the right wall.
Adjust your aim as you move, and when the slot opens let loose with secondary
fire. Once you have an aiming point just use the left stick to move to the next
one.)
At the top of the ramp at the end of the hall a Gran is waiting. Crouch, then
ease up until his legs are just visible and disrupt his molecular continuity.
Save? Stop short of the top of the ramp, and look around the corner with the
third person cam. You'll see an opening to the right. Another Gran is just
around the corner of that opening. Strafe out onto the landing, and as soon as
you see him strafe back. Look around with the third person cam again for aim,
and then bounce a thermal or two his way. You can also snipe him if your
careful. Once he's gone, Slowly move up the hall. (Thermals.)
Keep an eye on the end of the hall. The Gran on the upper walkways should come
around the corner up there one or two at a time when they sense your back in
the area. Give the second wave some time, they have a ways to come.
(If they don't, you'll need to bait them. Go up the ramp and around the corner.
Then quickly run thru the door, and then run clear back to the tunnel with
pulpits. (There is a Weequay to the right just outside the door, so have your
saber out.)
Then move back to the corner, and ease around again.) When one shows, quickly
back around the corner. Put your back to the wall, and slowly strafe back out
to take a look. If you got back around the corner quickly, they will stop far
enough up the ramp that you can snipe them without them attacking. If they
start throwing thermals, load the last save and try again, or strafe out and
back from the corner to take them out. (If there's only one that's close and
throwing thermals, use speed and push then saber him on the ground.)
When all four are dead, move up the ramp and destroy the grate on the right
wall. Jump into the duct and follow it to look down on a room with an explosive
crate. (And a Rodian if you didn't kill him earlier.) Shoot the crate to blow
holes in a couple of walls, then back-track, drop out of the duct and turn
left. There is a room below with crates on one side stacked up to the level
your on. Two Rodians and a Weequay hang out down there.
Hug the wall and back down the crates to the second one. Ease out to the edge
and throw a Det-Pak down as close to the overhang as you can. Trigger it, then
use third person to check out the damage. Hopefully, you'll see three guns. If
not, toss down another. (There are plenty more ahead.) Move to the far end of
the room on top of the crates. (Small Shield Generator.)
Drop down into the corner of the room and cleanup if necessary. Collect the
stuff (Ammo and a Bacta) and slash the lock off the door. Go thru the new hole
in the wall to the left, then follow the hall down to the cells. (Slash the
door lock for access to the masher room.) Talk to Lando who'll give you a
password.
Looking for Beedo.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Make your way back thru the room you just cleared, and climb the boxes and move
out into the hall with the duct. Go up the ramp and around the corner. Save?
Equip the saber and run thru the door, then quickly turn right to face the
Weequay if he's still alive. Immediately back away from him a few feet to avoid
being sniped by a Rodian in the far corner of the room. When he runs close
enough, pull him down and finish him. (Thermals in the corner.)
Turn left to face the far end of the room, and strafe left to the corner. Find
the Gran on the lateral walkway to the right and snipe him. Then run to the
crates he was near. (Det-Paks. There are more Det-Paks up here in a corner.
Also two Small Shield Generators, a Seeker Drone, and other misc. items on
crates that can be reached from these catwalks.)
Run to the wall and follow it to end of the walkway. A Rodian will run out of
the room below out onto the platform in front of it. (If he isn't already out.)
Back up to safety, then ease forward enough to head shoot him. Jump across to
the roof for the stuff if you need it. (Ammo, Small Shield Generator.) Enter
the room. (Thermals.) Go thru the door at the end of the hall for a Bacta and
Thermals. Then approach the other door to be queried for the password Lando
provided.
Go thru the door that opens, and then down the hall and onto the lift. Get off
at the top and follow the short hall to another lift. Save? Step onto and then
back off of it to make it go down. Run along the top left edge of the wall that
falls with the lift to enter the secret area. (Bacta, Small Shield Generators.)
If you are close to the lift it will cycle up and down. Snipe the two Weequay
who are stationary from up here.
Then jump or ride down and slash the 'door.' The left slit at the end of this
room harbors a Rodian sniper, so stay to the right of center for now. There's
an auto-turret on a track in the tunnel to the left also. Take out the Weequay
who runs in and out of the room when you get a chance, then snipe the Rodian.
(Note the Ammo Power Converter inside.) Save?
Snipe the first traveling turret from the cover of the tunnel entrance. You can
saber throw it, but it can be tough. There are two more of these track mounted
turrets guarding the tunnel. The next one is easily shot from the tunnel
entrance as it approaches and stops momentarily. The last one can be a bit
tougher to take out safely. Use your saber to block its fire as you ease around
the corner of the tunnel. Find the sweet spot where it fires slightly over you,
but you can get a red cross-hair. Switch to a ranged weapon and take it out.
(You'll have to strafe out just a bit to get a red cross-hair with a gun.)
Next move clear to the left wall and zoom in on the Weequay under glass at the
end of the tunnel. If the small piece of cracked glass is still there shoot it
out, then snipe him. There are a few slits along the right wall, four have
Rodians behind them. Snipe them as you move down the tunnel. *If you wing one,
he may come for you.*
Around the corner at the far end waits a Weequay. Kill him. Save? Use push to
press the switch behind the glass, then go thru the door. Avoid the next door
until you've collected the goodies. (Ammo, Medi-Pak, and a Shield Power
Converter.) Save? The next room is a gladiator ring of sorts. Select speed, and
equip your favorite anti-turret weapon. Enter the room.
The Gladiator pit.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the cut scene, four auto-turrets on tracks will wind up and start firing.
Run right up to the door in front of you and center yourself on it. If you are
in the sweet spot, you will take no damage. Turn around, and calmly take out
the turrets one by one. Note the square door to the left. (If the sweet spot
eludes you, slowing down the control sensitivity and circle strafing can also
work well.) As soon as the last turret explodes, hit speed and equip the saber.
Save?
Move toward the square door while angle strafing to keep your saber between you
and the Weequay pouring from the room that has been exposed. Run into the room
and get behind the left door jamb. (Left as you enter.) Select force pull, and
aim near the ammo in the far corner. As the Weequay enter and stop, pull and
then saber throw them. (They may switch spots to stop at.) Strafe to the other
corner to bait them if they become reluctant to enter. Snipe any stragglers.
When all five are dead, collect the stuff in this room. (Ammo, Small Shield
Generator, Medi-Pak.) Then move to the center of the big room.
The two doors either side of the observation room each have three Rodians
waiting behind. Equip your thermals and select speed. Charge up a secondary
fully and run up to one of the doors, hitting speed as you approach. As soon as
the door opens, start backing up as you throw the thermal in the middle of the
three. Immediately start charging another thermal, and head to the other door.
Do the same with it. If all went well the place will get very quiet. Save?
Go thru one of the doors and up the ramp to the observation room. (Bacta,
Ammo.) Press the switch near the window to free Lando. Then press the switch
under the desk to open the secret area behind. (Shield Power Converter, Ammo,
Bacta.) If you have less than fifty shield points, wait to use the converter.
Surf down the red tunnel down to a ledge that overlooks a stairway. Snipe the
Rodian under the stairs and drop down.
Push the switch under the stairs to get the stuff he was guarding. (Ammo, Trip
Mines, Bacta, and a Large Shield Generator.) If you need to get back up to the
gladiator arena, use the lift above the stairs. Go thru the door into the cell
area to hook up with Lando. *There is another Seeker Drone in one of the side
corridors down here.* Follow him to the lift and ride it up to finish the
level.

>Mind-trick. (See the "Force Tips" section.)
Move into the room at the top of the lift. (Ammo Power Converter.) There is a
Bomber Gran patrolling. Take him, or let Lando. Follow Lando to the next lift
and ride up. At the top, Lando takes over for a bit. (Bacta.) When Kyle gets
his legs back, move onto the lift and ride down. Once outside the hangar,
you'll see a door with a saber lock on it at the end of a bridge. Save? Leave
it for now, and head to the left around the hangar.
Go past the large hangar door and around two more corners. You'll see a group
of storage tanks (rounded edges) and large metal boxes on the other side of a
deep chasm, and a walkway. A Weequay patrols the walkway and storage area. Kill
him. *If you have trouble with moving targets, snipe him with the Disruptor
while he's in the storage area. Part of his patrol there will have him walking
directly away from you. (And shortly there after back towards you.) An easy
shot, but not a lot of time to get it off.*
Continue around the hangar but stop short of the end of the short tunnel you've
entered. Find and snipe the Gran ahead. Hug the wall and keep going until you
find a locked door on the left. Go a couple feet past the door and turn around.
You'll see some orange lights, and to the left and below those a horizontal
window. Just left of the window is a vertical slit. Zoom in to see just enough
Rodian to snipe. Next, jump to the top of the door frame, and face the building
opposite. You should be able to just see the top of another sniper's head. (If
not, he's behind the beam, strafe left a little.) Take him out with a fully
charged Disruptor shot thru the glass. Save?
Now head back the way you came, to where you shot the patrolling Weequay. There
are two Gran on the tops of the metal boxes in the storage area across the
abyss. And another Weequay walking a short patrol between the tanks and boxes
on the right side. Locate and snipe the Weequay first to be safe, then take out
the two Gran.
Now make your way to the door with a saber lock, and slash the lock. There may
be a Weequay just inside, but he's usually in the hall behind the first door to
the left. Kill him and go down the hall. There are two more Weequay in the next
room, and a Rodian with a Disruptor in the right corner. Move up to the door
close enough to open it and take out the Weequay as they show up. (Mind-trick?)
When they're both gone, hit speed and run thru the room on the left side of the
deep red hole. Run up to the wall, and move toward the half pillar which should
block the Rodian from shooting. (Large Shield Generator.) Snipe him around the
pillar. Grab his Disruptor for the ammo and a Battery or two if need be, then
go thru the door into a very dark room. Save?
There is a Weequay patrolling the far side of this room. He will see your
saber, so sheath it or equip a gun and put on the LAG. Go right from the door,
then jump over the dark colored tank. Follow the passage way around to the left
to a short opening, crouch and go thru it. Aim down the passage way ahead and
turn off the goggles. When the Weequay shows up and turns around, take him out
quickly. Turn the LAG back on, go the way he came. You'll come to a T, to the
left are some Det-Paks to the right some Bacta and the exit.
Outside the door is the storage area, jump up onto the metal box in front of
you. There will be two tanks close and ahead, and a another to the right
(Thermal Dets.) Jump to the right most tank ahead, and move halfway to the end
of it. Turn left and face the center of the building that spans the chasm
between the hangar and the wide walkway on the right.
In third person view, tap strafe to the right while watching the right edge of
the building your facing. Stop as soon as you see a bit of white show up at
that edge. It's a Rodian sniper. Set up your vertical aim, then switch to the
Disruptor and tap strafe until you can see enough of his shoulder for a shot.
*Remember, you can strafe and remain zoomed if you crouch.* A tough shot to set
up, but satisfying to let fly.
There is a Weequay at the end of the tank you're on (Power Cell Ammo,) and
another in the corner behind the square boxes. Kill them. Now move down the
walkway slowly. Stop when Lando asks for assistance. Hug the wall and zoom in
on the area just below the orange light up ahead. You will see two auto-
turrets, take them out for Lando. There is also a Gran near the top auto-
turret. If you can't see him, strafe left a bit and he should be visible.
(Watch the edge.) Save?
Make your way along the right walkway as far the corner of the building on the
left. (The one that spans the chasm.) Wait for the patrolling Weequay to walk
into view on the other side of the chasm, and then snipe him. Save? Behind the
door in the corner just ahead are two Weequay who usually rush out as soon as
the door opens.
Select mind-trick and the saber, then hug the wall and move to the door jamb.
Back up a couple of feet, then trick, throw, trick, throw as they exit. *If
they get by you, back away and keep them in front of you.* When they're gone,
look up and find the slit above and to the left of the door. Toss a det-pak
thru the slit and then set it off. Now turn to face away from the door, and
zoom in on the far end of the chasm. You'll see two Weequay to snipe eventually.
When they are no more, move just into the room behind you and look around the
corner with the third person cam. You should see a Gran and a Rodian close
together by some pipes. Ease your cross-hair around the corner and snipe them.
Equip your saber again and look further around the corner to see another Gran.
Kill him. Now move past this room. Around the next corner there's a Rodian,
snipe him and move toward where he was.
Run past the two windows and into the corner near them. Ease your cross-hair
around the corner and snipe the Rodian up on the walkway above. Then move to
the right side of the windows to where you can see the walkway the Rodian was
on go into a tunnel. Fire a couple of rounds into the first few feet of the
tunnel and get back into the corner. In about 15 seconds another Rodian should
appear, snipe him. (If he doesn't show, strafe out of the corner and back in.)
Now go out the door and follow the walkway out to the pad with three lights on
it. Jump up to the pulpit above that housed the auto-turrets you shot for
Lando. Enter the room (Bacta, Ammo, and two Small Shield Generators) and turn
left. Note the Weequay as move toward the tunnel. Move out and trick-saber him,
then follow the tunnel. Around the next corner is another Weequay, samo. And
again around the next corner and thru a door. (If the second Rodian failed to
show before, he'll be here with the third Weequay.) Go thru the unlocked door
and up the ramp to a switch. (Bacta.) Lando calls to tell you the hangar is
open after you press it.
The hangar.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The two side doors at the bottom of the ramp are also now open. (Before you
leave, there is a secret area adjacent to the roof of this control room. It can
be reached by jumping thru the window directly above the switch. Or by jumping
thru the window above the door frame. (Crouch at the top of this jump.) Grab
the stuff if you need it and drop back down into this room. (Two Large Shield
Generators and more Bacta.))
Go back down the ramp and thru the door. Turn left and go thru the now open
side door. Walk down the ramp and follow the walkway to where it widens out.
Plant a det-pak here, and another a few feet on. (They will make things easier
later on.) Now make your way around the hangar to the front door. Don't go in
yet.
Notice Lando standing by the refueling valve. Shortly after you cross the
threshold three Weequay, a Rodian, and a Gran will come thru the back door.
When they're gone nine or ten more Gran, Weequay, and Rodians will come thru
one of the doors. And after them a final wave of five. If Lando dies, it's game
over. And Lando tends toward brash. Save. (If you are low on electric power, go
back to the room with the deep red hole and batteries, then come back here.
(You'll be running thru the very dark room again.))
Select speed and run down the right side of the ship, getting under the middle
of it when you can. Stop just before you get to the ramp that leads up into the
ship. When the first guy fires at you, run around the ramp and out the door.
Run across the bridge and thru the now unlocked door. Run up the ramps and move
to the switch. Watch the enemies come back out the door. When three have made
it out, run back down the ramps, go across the bridge and back into the hangar.
(If less than three come out the door, Lando will probably die. load the last
save and try again. Three is a toss up.)
Lando should still be near one of the fuel valves. Get to Lando, if anyone's in
here besides him, kill them. On either side of the hangar there is grate in the
floor near the wall. On one side it's covered by a pushable box. On the other
side it's covered by a stack of slashable boxes. Expose the grate, then pull
Lando over near it. (He'll complain, but be fine usually.) Break the grate and
push Lando down into the hole.
Equip the det-paks and go into Lando's ship. Make your way to the top of the
second ramp, and set off the det-paks you planted earlier. (If you didn't plant
the det-paks, or they don't do the trick: Move to the back door, and snipe the
enemies to the left. Quickly get back to the ship when the second to last one
falls.)
Equip your saber and select mind trick. Kill anyone that comes in. Then head
out the door up here and onto the party deck. Ease over to the edge that
overlooks the side that Lando's on. There may be some guys staring at the hole.
Take them out, closest first. Wait a few seconds to see if anyone takes their
place. Then use third person to check closer to the ship.
Move to the other side and take out anything on that side. When both sides and
the hole remain clear, cautiously leave the ship, and clear the room. (Have
speed and your other fav. force handy. The Bomber Gran and Rodians are the main
threat.) Look around now. There is Ammo, Bacta, and a Power Converter of each
flavor. (Save the green for a bit later.) Use jump and pull to get Lando out of
his foxhole. Save?
He should head to the rear of the ship and tell you to watch his butt. Equip
the saber and your fav. force power. Stand at the top of the entrance ramp and
repel all borders. When they stop coming, leave the ship and clear the room.
(Be careful no one gets into the ship.)
Lando will have mentioned a new problem. The roof doors need to be opened, and
the fuel turned on. The switches for the roof sections are reached by going
into the holes on either side of the hangar floor. (If you are considering
going outside for shield generators, it is only safe to go thru the front door
and to the room with the deep red hole. There are a bunch of new snipers
outside.) Save?
Go into the hole that was/is covered by a pushable box. Follow the tunnel to
grate at the end. Equip the saber and mind trick. Throw the saber to destroy
the grate, then hold down the force button. If one of the Weequay runs across
the opening and is stunned by the mind trick, throw the saber and kill him.
Move out to the edge of the tunnel now, but not beyond.
You will likely take Bowcaster fire from the right. Turn toward it and ease out
just enough to target a mind trick. He will probably walk toward you for a
saber throw. If not mind trick him again. If he just won't move closer, ease
out enough to saber throw, but be aware there's a bomber Gran directly
overhead.
When it seems safe to switch from the saber to Thermals, do so and bounce one
off the wall into the Gran above you. When he's dead move out of the tunnel and
into the room. Go to the left and ease around the corner. If there's a Weequay
there, kill him. Then go the other direction.
This next Weequay will likely be moving. Use mind trick to settle him down a
bit and then settle him all the way down. Go back the other way and up the ramp
enough to head shoot the Rodian at the top. Press the five switches in this
room to open the roof section. Save? (Thermal Dets, and two Small Shield
Generators in here.) One door down and one to go. Save?
Head back to the hangar and drop into the hole on the other side At the end of
the tunnel is another grate overhead. Break it from inside the tunnel. Then
carefully search for a target with the E11 or Briar before moving out of the
shelter of the tunnel. They will be to the left. Two Weequay and a Rodian with
a blaster. It may take awhile for these guys to decide where they want to be,
so be patient.
When you can't target anyone from the tunnel, equip the saber and mind trick.
Move out of the tunnel into the hole. Face left toward the farthest wall and
back up to the edge of the hole. Jump up just enough to clear the hole and back
to the wall. (No force jump.) Take out any remaining enemies in front of you.
When it's quiet, turn around and hug the left wall. Slowly back up until you
can just see enough of the Gran's head to shoot him in it.
When he's dead, use the third person cam to locate the Rodian up there. Back up
and kill him. Jump up to where they were. Clear the room from up here if need
be. Press the four switches in the center and then the one in the corner.
(Ammo, and Bacta.) Now find the door out of this room and move close enough to
open it. (Note that it is a chopper style door.) Move thru it just enough so
that it won't hit you when it comes down.
Turn left and look around the corner in third person. You'll see a Rodian
sniper up near the light stalk. Ease up and out until you can snipe him from
cover. Tough shot. Save? Now back to third person and locate another on top of
the big tank. Take him out. Save?
Third person again to look even further around the corner as you move up and
see two more up on a ledge and close. Snipe them both from this cover. Save?
Now ease up the walkway watching the same roof the first Rodian was on (by the
light post,) but further right. It's a bomber Gran, and will show up in the
hole between the top of the near tank, and the circular pipe attached to it as
you move closer. Kill him.
Now move up to the brown tank to where you can see the walkway that goes over
to the big tank. The fuel valves are on top of the little brown tank, but
there's one more sniper watching them. So run across the walkway and around to
the right. Follow the wide walkway up to the building that had the hangar door
switch.
Go up the ramp thru the building and start down the ramp on the other side of
the building. Stop short of the corner. Look around the corner in third person.
To the left of the highest orange light up on a roof is the last Sniper. (A
very small target.) Ease your cross-hair around the corner and use the orange
light for a reference to find and snipe him. Save?
Go back thru the building and down the ramp. (Look up to the right to see a
light colored short ramp, and above it a ledge. There's a secret up there.
(Large Shield Generator, Trip Mines, and a Seeker Drone.) You will have to jump
onto the ramp from near the door.)
Continue on to the brown tank and jump up (crouch at the top of the jump) to
the fuel valves. It's crooked X on the left (blue,) and 'No Smoking' on the
right (red.) Lando will call to tell you get back to the ship. Back-track to
fill up, and then get back to the ship, and go up to the cockpit. Lando will
need one last favor. When he asks, use the panel in the corner to access the
nose gun and take out Reelo and his leftover henchmen. And it's off to Cloud
City you go.

>Force Heal.
Lando has dropped you off at the bottom of the city. *I recommend binding
mind-trick to a quick button here.* Turn right and move along the walkway until
you spot a grate. Stay off to the side to avoid the extreme draft as the piston
makes its down-stroke. Break the grate from the side, and when the piston stops
at your level quickly crouch and go thru the hole. Turn and face the opening
you just came thru. (A Weequay should now be right in front of you at the top.)
Mind-trick the Weequay as the lift nears the top. Then target him and saber
throw as the lift stops. Jump off and start running around the edge of the
hole. (You're sure to notice the Shield Power Converter, but I'll mention it
anyway.) As you near the first Gran veer to the outside and push him off the
edge. If the other one doesn't stop chasing you, reverse your direction. (Try
to time it so the lift is going down.)
When these three guys are gone, move around the rim of the hole and locate an
opening above. Save? Secret area. (Small Shield Generator, and another Seeker
Drone.) *A lot of seeker drones showing up as secret booty, wonder what that
means? Soon.* To get to the secret, jump up to the opening from the sloped
buttress while the piston is at the top. It's a tough jump, crouching at the
edge of the opening may help. (You might want to pull this generator out onto
the piston and then up to the floor to make it easier to get later.) Save?
There is only one door in here, and it is tied to the cycle of the piston. It
will only open when the piston is stopped. (When the light above the door is
white.) In the next room are two Weequay and two Rodians with blasters.
@Option3. Go to the door and place a primary fire trip-mine just inside as soon
as it opens. Strafe away to avoid being hit, and equip your saber. Select a
force power (I like mind-trick) and watch the door from one side.
If the door doesn't open on the next white cycle, move in and back out to open
it on the next. You should get two and sometimes three of the enemy with the
mine. Use force and the saber to finish the remaining ones as they come thru
the door. Go thru the door and up the stairs to the left. Save?
You'll come to a door, and to the left of that there's an elevator just around
the corner. *The elevator leads up to an optional room. You'll have to fight a
bomber Gran, two Weequay, and two Rodians for a Small Shield Generator and some
Bacta. I'd pass.* Select mind trick and run by the door to open it to bait the
two bomber Gran and two Weequay inside. Run around the corner toward the
elevator I just mentioned. Stop short of the elevator a few feet, turn around
and hug the left wall. Aim at where they will come around the corner, and hold
down the force button. (With mind-trick.)
As soon as the first Gran hits the cross-hair and stops, release the force
button, and throw your saber. As soon as the saber has done its work, press the
force button again for the next Gran. You will probably have to go after the
Weequay. When it's safe, enter the room they came out of. Save?
An Ugnaught is hard at work at a console in here. And if you nose around you'll
find another elevator. (Three Weequay, and a Rodian for Blaster Ammo and a
couple of Bacta.) The switch on the Ugnaught's console opens the door to the
furnace room. You can press the switch yourself and run like the wind thru
there, or mind trick the Ugnaught from the door to work the switch to gain a
little breathing room.
(To get back thru the fiery room, use speed to slow things down. Then run to
the door with the Disruptor equipped. Zoom in on the Ugnaught's head and mind-
trick him to open the door. You might want to bind mind-trick to a quick button
if you didn't before. Makes things go a little... quicker.)
Going up, and up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Past the fire room is a lift. Ride it up. As it nears the top look up and find
the door and get to the left of it. Look around the door jamb with the third
person cam. Straight across you'll see a small open elevator moving between the
tier you're on and the next. To the left of that, and at your level is a support
for the glowing pipe that encircles the room. On the left side of the support
is a Rodian sniper. Ease the Briar cross-hair around the door jamb and...
Now you can step out into the room and look around. There are four small
elevators cycling. (Two directly above you.) You'll notice a red force field
lattice appear whenever the elevators are stopped. The glowing tubes that
circle the room are not your friend, avoid touching them. There are also more
enemies above.
Select speed, and when the red lattice appears, use it to run across the hole
and jump to the support just to the right of the elevator. You want to land on
the small platform to the immediate right of the support. Then crouch and duck
into the hole. There is some ammo here. (There is ammo somewhere on every
tier.) Ease out of the other side of the hole. A Weequay above and on the far
side will start firing when he spots you. He isn't very accurate at this range,
so just quickly zoom in and disrupt his world. Save?
When the lattice reappears, run to the elevator to your right. (These elevators
can be deadly if you stray from the center while riding them, and I'm not
talking about the fall.) At the top of this elevator run to the closest support
to the right. Again, jump to it and duck into the hole. (Be quick about it, a
Rodian sniper has a clear shot.)
Ease to the right side of the hole and use the third person cam to check out
the next higher tier. On the right side of the support directly opposite you is
the Rodian sniper. He's ducking and will be hard to see and target. *He won't
fire when the lattice between you is active, so you can use this time to strafe
out with the Disruptor, and zoom in to get a bead on him. You will be in a
forced crouch as long as you don't move to far from the hole, so no need to
hold the crouch button to stay zoomed. Use speed to slow things down. Then you
can strafe back in and have your vertical aim set.* Ease the cross-hair around
and get it red, then send a fully charged Briar secondary his way.
When he's gone, get to the elevator and ride it up. Save? (You can also just
run straight to the elevator and then toss a thermal at him as you near his
level.) This time run to the support just left of the elevator opposite. Ease
out of the right side of the hole and take care of another inaccurate Weequay.
Save?
Now get to, and ride the last elevator up to the top. There will be a door to
the left. Two Weequay and a bomber Gran wait behind it. When you can, run to
the right side of the support that is just to the right of the door. Don't go
into the hole yet. Aim at the door and use speed. Move into the hole and go a
little past halfway thru. The door will start to open. Back up to where you
can't be seen. The Weequay will now be outside. Ease the Briar cross-hair
around the corner and take out the nearest one.
The Gran will come out now if you are past the center of the hole. Back up so
he doesn't see you and toss a thermal your way. (If he didn't come out, use
speed and move forward again to bring him out.) Snipe him and the Weequay as
well, then get to the door. (Large Shield Generator, and a Bacta.) Inside
you'll find the final lift. Underneath it the final secret. (Small Shield
Generator, Ammo, and a Bacta.) Back track and fill up if you need to, then come
back here and ride the lift to end the level.

>The Reborn Jedi Zombies make their debut in this level. I try to avoid saber
>battles early in the walkthrough, but that's not always possible. So even if
>you aren't much of a swordsman, you should save and battle these guys for the

>Then if it doesn't work out, try the method this walkthrough offers to get
>by. "The method" will involve the saber more later on, so get in some
>practice now.
At the top of the lift is short hall with an Ammo Power Converter and a door.
On the other side of the door two Weequay and a Rodian (Blaster Rifle) are
patrolling. Just work the doorway with the saber and your fav. force power.
Then check out the room. (Ammo, Thermals and Bacta.) Slash the grate to the
right of the door. (Facing the door.) Save?
Jump into the tube and hang on to your saber. Don't touch the left stick, and
you _should_ land on a platform. Look up to see more platforms above you.
You'll see air rushing upwards in a regular cycle. Jump toward the closest
platform above when the air starts rushing. Use a force on the Rodian who
awaits as you drop to the platform. The next platform is guarded by a Weequay.
The one after that, two Weequay. Save?
The top platform is a quite large. The better to fight a saber battle on?
Select force speed. Then head on up. When you land a cut scene starts. The
first Reborn of the game will soon be dropping in. (He's immune to push and
pull in the air.) Whup his butt with your light saber. Speed should give you
enough of an advantage. Especially if he saber throws. ***Or quickly get to his
side of the large pillar in the center of the platform after he makes the jump
over the gap. He will usually just twiddle his thumbs and pace. And he seems to
have a problem dodging Disruptor shots. (At least those "below the belt.") Two
good shots and he's usually toast.***
Kyle will start a monologue in the vein of "quacks like duck." When he's
finished talking, the door on the other side will open. Two Rodians will come
out. They'll know where you are, and how to use the air jets to get over to
you. So equip the saber and run to the left as soon as red hooded stranger goes
down. (Don't save or go to the menu here, it will cut Kyle's speech short and
the door will open prematurely.)
The little jets will boost you over the gap. On the other side, get quickly to
the left side of the door and turn to aim at the closest stairway. Select push
and use it when ever one of these guys comes out. (If you got to the door quick
enough, no one will exit. Look around the door jamb to see what's what. You can
snipe them one by one around the door jamb.)
As soon as you go thru this door, two more Rodians and two more Weequay will
come running from around the corner. Get back outside and aim at the stairway
from the left side of the door again. Push every time you see one exit. With a
little practice, you should be putting all four in the side pocket. Enter the
hallway once it's safe and go to the stairs. (Ammo Power Converter.)
Around the corner past the stairs are a couple of bomber Gran. Save? Ease the
camera around the corner to size them up. If you decide to push their thermals
back in their faces (very satisfying,) get in fairly close. There's Shield
Power Converter near them, but save it if your less than fifty shields.
When you open the door, you'll see another Reborn waiting patiently on the
platform above. Select your LAG, then move into the room. Aim over his head,
and wait for him to jump. When he does give him a push, then run to the left
and up the stairs. Follow the wall around under another stairway. Turn on the
LAG if you need to and duck into the hole under the stairs. Secret area. (Two
Small Shield Generators, Ammo, and a Bacta.)
Turn around, turn off the LAG and get to the left side of the opening. Select
push and strafe over in front of the opening. Push when jumps, and if he falls
move out a bit and throw your saber before he gets up. Move back into the hole
and repeat 'till he doesn't get up.
Watch your force meter, it does no good to get him down if you can't follow up
with a throw. *If he grips you and you lose much health, get to the left and
close to the opening. Heal, then move back over in front of the opening. He
rolls forward sometimes as he gets off the floor. It doesn't hurt to push when
he does. If he gets inside, put your back to a corner and slash and push for
all your worth.* A door will open above when he dies. Save?
Three Rodians will be up there. Leave the secret area and put your back to the
outside wall. Strafe around to the right until you can snipe the Rodians with
the Disruptor. Check out the two rooms now. (Ammo, and a Bacta.) In the upper
room is the R5 Lando programmed. Set it free and get on the lift with it. End
'o level.

>New weapon, Heavy Repeater. Primary can be blocked by a lightsaber, but won't
>be reflected back. This gives it potential against saber wielding enemies.
>Concussion secondary.
>New enemy, Trandoshan.
>Force grip. (See the "Force Tips" section.)
>Somewhere in this level Kyle began to intermittently dodge Disruptor shots
>from Rodian matrix style dodge if standing still, and use speed for a moment if

When the lift reaches the top you'll get control of your legs back. Jump up
onto the ledge to the left. (Bacta.) Open the door and move in close to the
trip-mine beams. Pull the Repeater out of the Trandoshan's hands. Then pull him
down to the mines as you back up to a safe distance. When he's cleared the way,
enter the room. (Large Shield Generator.)
Press the switch, and run back past the droid. Jump onto the rising lift and
beat it to the door. Get to the left side and face the security lock. When the
droid turns to access the lock, move in behind it to trap it between you and
the door jamb when the door opens. Strafe right just a hair to avoid being shot
by a Weequay on a ledge outside. Turn to face the hall.
This veranda is heavily trip-mined. Leave the high ones, they can be used to
your advantage. Use a blaster weapon to take out the close one. Then switch to
the Disruptor and take out the rest that are visible. Three of the lower mines
will be hidden by pillars. Save? Use the Repeater secondary to explode them.
The closest one is on the left side of the hall. The farther two are across
from each other. Save? When the hall is clear, back up to free the droid, then
move to left side of the door.(If the R5 is stuck, use pull to give it a tug.)
Ease the cross-hair around the corner and nail the Weequay on the ledge across
the pit. Then run up to the first support and use it for cover to snipe the
Rodian. (Mind the trip mine.) Finally, take out the Gran at the end. Wait until
the droid has gone thru the door at the end of the veranda and disappeared,
then fire a couple of blaster rounds thru that door. Now go back thru the first
door, get to the left of it, and select your fav. force. (Mind-trick is my fav.
force power here.) The trip-mines should get three guys. Work the doorway. *Try
holding the force button down if using mind trick.* Saber throw the last two
after the force does its thing. When it's over, head down the veranda. Save?
The next room has couple of Tie fighters parked, and a double door at one end.
The droid will have parked itself in a side room. Secret area. (Ammo Power
Converter.) There are no enemies in the room thru the double door, but some in
a side room off of that. Select speed and go thru the double door. Turn left
and move along the wall until you see one of them bolt for the door. Hit the
speed and run back to the first door the R5 unlocked. Force and saber throw
until no more come thru. (These guys will keep walking when mind-tricked so
work close to the edge of the door. You can use the secret room for this also,
but it tougher. They don't like to come in.)
You will probably have to kill at least one straggler. When all four are dead,
check out the two rooms for goodies. (Ammo, two Small Shield Generators.) Save?
At one end of the main room is a saber-locked door. As soon as you open it two
Weequay, a Rodian, and a Gran will see you. Cut the lock and get to the left of
the door. Fav. force and saber again. Save?
Go out the door into an open area. There will be a small door to the left.
Nothing in there but a Gran and a Weequay. Move on down toward the bigger door.
When you approach it a Reborn will appear on the ledge above and to the right.
The Repeater secondary in conjunction with force push can be a deadly combo
with this flavor of Jedi wannabe. Play with it 'till it works. Save?
Go thru the double doors and hook up with a Rebel 'Barney.' He will follow you
and provide assistance of a sort. (He's no more accurate than Jan, but with a
lesser rate of fire.) Move up to the other door just close enough to open it.
Use the Disruptor on the Rodian across the street and slightly to the right,
and then on the Trandoshan in the corner further to the right.
Another Rodian and a Weequay are on the way, from down the street to the left.
Take them as they came thru the door. Barney of course will help. (I personally
prefer to work alone, most of the time anyway. But I don't like to kill
friendlies. The one cloud car back where the Reborn appeared works well as a
pen. ;) This walkthrough assumes the Barneys are penned or dead.)
Move back to the doorway and find the Gran on a ledge above, across the street.
Snipe him. Turn left out of the door and head down the street. Around the first
corner to the left is a Trandoshan. (Ammo.) Kill him. As you approach the next
corner, firing will start. Get behind the cloud car, and snipe the hard to see
Rodian and the cannon jockey at the end of the street. It will get quiet. Save?
Turn around and look up at the ledge style walkway on the buildings to the
left. You will see a small door nearby. To the right of that, straight down the
street is a veranda on the same level as the door. Select speed and move the
sidewalk closest to the door, then back down the street away from the door.
When the door opens, hit speed and run back to the door where you entered the
streets proper.
Go inside and then strafe out and back in to see if the Rodian sniper that came
out the door noticed you. Also check the walkways on the other side of the
street between here and the veranda. (If the Rodian fired, ease the Briar
cross-hair out and find him.) Move out into the street and zoom in on the
Rodian with the Disruptor. When he's gone, find the Gran that came out onto the
veranda. (Probably still on the far end of the veranda.)
Now cross the street and move down to the second street lamp. Look up at the
veranda and tap strafe left until you see a Rodian sniper's head. Zoom in and
pop it. (Sometimes another Rodian sniper will show up on the walkway near the
hangar. I'm not sure why, it may be random or stray fire landing near him. He
will have made his presence known by now if that's the case. Punt, or load the
last save.) Save?
Head for the hangar now, keeping an eye on the walkways above. When you draw
fire, hit speed and retreat to behind the cloud car. Get up close to it, right
behind the engine. Watch for the Rodian that will come out of the door. He will
most likely get stuck at the center of the make shift barricade. *If doesn't,
mind-trick him as he comes around the corner of the car, and kill him there.*
Select mind-trick, and zoom in with the Disruptor. He'll be dancing around a
bit. Aim chest high and calm him down with a shot of mind-trick. And zap.
Now get to the left wall and ease down toward the door. As soon as the Rodian
up top fires, move back just 'till he stops firing. Zoom in and try to get a
shot. If you can't see him crouch and tap strafe until you can. Once he's
history, run to the left side of the big door. Look around the edge of the door
for a Weequay on the ledge inside. If you find him, snipe him. If not, he's
above you. Back into the street until a head shot presents itself. Take it.
There is a Large Shield Generator, some Bacta and various Ammo near the
barricade and laser cannon. Make your way to the lift in the hangar. Save? At
the top two Rodians will come around the far corner to the left. (Looking
toward the door.) Run off the lift when it reaches the top. Hit speed and run
to the corner underneath them. Then back away until you see a head. Pow. And
then another. (The second one can be tough to see if the light is behind him.)
Above the streets.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heal, then ride the lift up. Go left to circle the big room and grab the Ammo
and Bacta. Nearby is a small darkened tunnel in a shallow alcove. Jump up into
it for a secret area. (Ammo, Small Shield Generator, and Bacta.) Then follow
the walkway down the street to the door the Rodian sniper came out awhile back.
As soon as it opens, the two Weequay inside will be aware of your presence.
They are hard to call. They may or may not run out. I like to just strafe over
in front of the door and push, then saber throw. (Be close to the door.) With a
little luck, you'll get them both with one throw. Repeat if necessary. As you
enter the hall they were in, a Rodian will come out of a door to the left.
Saber fodder. Inside that room is a Shield Power Converter.
Follow the hallway around the corner to another door. When you go thru it, two
Rodians will come running. Speed, push, throw, hack. Or push, throw, throw.
Or... The next room (how many doors does that make?) has two more Rodians. (I
recommend mind-trick, these two will walk right to your saber throw.) Save?
There are some Thermal-Dets in the corner by the door. (Also a Bacta in another
corner.) Careful though, once that door's been opened, two Weequay and a bomber
Gran will soon arrive.
The other door is saber-locked. Behind it are two Barneys. (And not much else.)
If you choose to free the guards, they will usually handle the next three
enemies OK, with a little help. (Force power, directed at the doorway from off
to the side.) If you choose to go it alone, force push seems the safest power
when dealing with bomber Gran. If you run back a door or two these guys will
string out, with the Gran usually in the lead.
Go out the door and follow the walkway. About halfway around the second round
building, two Rodians and a Weequay will attack from ahead. Push works great,
but you may want the Weequays ammo. Ease on around this building until another
Weequay fires on you from afar. He's a long ways off, so you're pretty safe.
Kill him now though. Save?
As soon as you take a few more steps, two Rodian snipers will appear. One
around the corner next to a lift there, and the other near the top of the round
building across the top of the wall. Use speed, then select push. Run around
the building your next to and push the Rodian by the lift. Kill him quickly if
he doesn't fall off. Turn around and run across the top of the wall before the
one up top gets a bead. (Ammo.) Save?
Back away from the building just far enough to target the sniper above, then
kill him. Go back to the lift and ride it down. Go to the right and stop when
you get next to the big door. Notice the little door above has opened. Run back
the lift you rode down and press the switch. A bomber Gran will come out of the
door and will try to get close enough to toss thermals. Run back to the big
door and snipe him from there. Now ride the other lift up and head to the door
he came out of. Save?
There's a Rodian, a Weequay, and a Trandoshan left inside. (I like mind-trick
and saber throw from a forty-five degree angle to side of the door.) Press the
tiny switch inside to open one of the huge doors below. (Two Small Shield
Generators, and a couple of Bacta.) Ride the lift down and go thru the door.
Save?
Behind each of the matching monoliths a Reborn awaits. (Two different flavors.)
One is susceptible to Repeater secondary fire, the other just pushes it back.
Note the elevator. Select speed and run along the sidewalk on the left. Just
after you see the one closest to you, use speed and run to the elevator. Get on
and press the switch. Turn around, hopefully to see that the Reborn have
decided to stay and guard the opposed obelisks. If not load the last save and
try again. (If you have trouble getting them to stay, try baiting them over
close to the big door. Then hit speed and run down the right side to the
elevator.) Avoid jumping in the sight of the Reborn, they seem to sometimes
take it as a taunt.
Up top there will be a bridge with a series of buttresses (that's wrong but...)
on either side. Behind each buttress is a trip-mine that isn't activated. (And
a few more up on the railing.) Use the Repeater secondary to clear the mines
behind the first two buttresses on each side. Lob a shot in just beyond each
buttress. Don't move past the second buttress on the left while doing this.
When you're done use speed and move up to the second buttress on the right,
then get behind the second buttress on the left and crouch. Wait for the speed
to wear off. Stand back up and aim toward the nearest enemy/ies. Now pull the
right stick back to raise the vertical aim as high as it will go. Fire of a
couple secondaries, then bring the aim down to watch them land. Adjust the aim
and repeat until it's clear. Save? @Option4. Clear the rest of the bridge of
mines if you want, then reload your Repeater with the Ammo around the corner
from the lift.
Cross the bridge and follow the left wall to the window. Ease up to the railing
in third person and locate the two Rodians guarding a door down below. Go back
to where the Rodians won't see you, and jump up onto the little ledge along the
right wall. Move up to where you can see the one to the right of the door.
Snipe him and move forward just beyond the corner. Tap strafe to the right
until you can get a red cross-hair on the other one and snipe him. Turn to the
right and jump down into the water. Equip the saber and move to the door.
Use the camera to peer around the door jamb and check out yet another veranda.
There will be a Weequay close and a Rodian patrolling farther down. (There is
another Weequay around the corner.) Force and saber. (If the Rodian doesn't
return from his patrol, going back thru the door may get him moving. Also, the
second Weequay sometimes shows up with the Rodian.) Try to stay close to the
door, or keep moving while dealing with these guys. (There's a Rodian sniper on
a ledge across a pit to the right who may fire.)
When it gets quiet again, stay to the right and move down just short of the end
of the second bench. Crouch and zoom in on the ledge straight ahead. You should
be able to find the legs of a Rodian sniper. Paper tiger. Save? Stand up,
switch to third person and turn to the right to look around the edge of the
wall. You will see another Rodian up on the ledge somewhere. (If not, strafe
left until you see him.)
Run to the first roof support pillar and use it for cover. Try to get a red
cross-hair on this guy and kill him. It may take a few tries, he's slippery.
When you're done (Save?) follow the veranda around the corner. Take out the
Weequay if he's still here. Inside the room at the end of the veranda are a
Weequay and a Rodian. Also four STroopers further around to the right. Take out
the two aliens from the door way with force and saber. Then look over the edge
of the railing out on the veranda. Save? There's a narrow bit of ledge visible
below. Secret area. (Two Small Shield Converters, and another Seeker Drone.)
When you've made it back up to the door, use speed to run past the STroopers
and into the little room with a Ammo Power Converter and some Thermal-Dets.
Take out the troopers one by one. In the next little room is another Power
Converter (green flavor.) There are two more STroopers to kill in the room thru
the door, also a lift.
At the top of the lift are two Officers (one with heavy shields and a key,) a
Rodian sniper, a bomber Gran, a Weequay, and a STrooper. Equip the Repeater,
select speed and ride the lift up. Near the top, activate speed then select
push and elevate the Repeater aim slightly. As soon as you see the Gran, aim at
him then hold down the secondary trigger and start slowly strafing left. The
Rodian and Gran are the most dangerous.
Once they're gone, and the Officers have run from the room you should have no
trouble. Switch to the saber, and finish off the STrooper and Weequay if you
need to. Then heal and grab the stuff in here. (Bacta, and Ammo.)
Get the left side of the door, then tap strafe right until you can snipe the
first Officer. Snipe the other one if he's there, then back away from the door.
Use speed and run thru the door. The Reborn will jump over your head most
likely, if not run around him. Run over the Officer with the dark uniform to
grab the Security Key he has. (If there is nothing in this level you need, you
can try running around the cloud car and back into the other room. If you're
quick, with a bit of luck you can unlock, open, and go thru the door. A few
steps down the hall will end the level.)
Run by the cloud car and off the edge. Land on the wall below and turn left.
You should recognize the area. Make your way to the tiny switch that opens the
huge door. (Monoliths.) Heal. Open the door and ride the lift down. The Reborn
you left here will begin moving toward you as soon as you near the door. Get to
the other big door and watch. When the time looks right, use speed and run
around the hole and go thru the door. Use speed again as soon as you can and
head straight to the elevator. Make your way back to the room with the security
door you now have a key for. Unlock it, and enter to end the level.

Save? Above and to the left, a Reborn waits for you. He will drop from his
perch as soon as you approach the pillar he's near, or he senses a cross-hair.
His perch leaves him vulnerable to push or pull. Equip the trusty Repeater, and
select push. Move up close, then aim below him. Push, then target him and let
loose with primary fire as you move in close. (He is in such a bad position
when he falls to the floor that almost any gun will work. (A quick saber kill
is also a possibility.) Pull actually works better, but you will have to get it
off quickly as you move the cross-hair onto him.) If it goes bad, load the last
save and try again. Save?
Move up to the door at the end of the hall and open it. You'll see two
STroopers and two Squad Leaders far off near a crystal light, an unlocked door
to the left close, and some trip-mines just beyond that. (The doors to the
right are locked.) The STroopers are patrolling, and the Squad Leaders are
stationary. There is an Officer and two more STroopers in the room to the left.
Run thru the door to the left, turn right, then back up to the wall. Face your
enemies and see what the level-2 saber defense can do. If you have a chance to
safely pull an FC-1 away from a commander, go ahead and do it. They will pick
up a rifle, but that's fine. When everyone with normal weapons has met there
end, go after the remaining Flechetters if any. Force and saber of course.
Save?
Grab the Ammo in here and move up _to_ the round area with the crystal light in
the middle. Save? There are two doors and a lift. Two STroopers will come out
of the left door when you move into the room. So move over to the door and get
rid of them now. Now go thru the other door. (The center door.)
Around the first corner is a wall o' mines, around the next an assault sentry
gun. Leave the mines for now, and tap strafe to where you can safely snipe the
assault sentry. Use the Disruptor to aim if you want, but use a blaster weapon
to shoot. Keep your saber equipped for protection until you have found a safe
position. (Anywhere in the lower section of an assault sentry is vulnerable,
but the gun itself is not.) Now jump up on the ledge opposite the wall o' mines
and move forward to trigger them. (Just out of range.) Continue down the ledge
until you can snipe another assault sentry farther down the hall. You are out
of its sensor range so no need to hide. Save?
Move up to the closest of two doors on the right side of the hall here. About
twenty feet or so away. Knock on the door with the Briar. If no one answers,
move up a few feet and knock again. When you get an answer, back down the hall
until you can just see the other door. Zoom in with the Disruptor and aim at
the wood of the door. Switch to the Briar and send two or three rounds at it. A
lone STrooper will come out to investigate, zoom in and vaporize him with the
Disruptor. Immediately switch to your saber and retreat to the room you made
your first stand in.
Same corner, same tactic. Four STroopers, and a Squad Leader will head your
way. Let the saber defense work its magic again until it's just you and the
Squad Leader. Force and saber time again. Go back into the crystal light room,
and go thru the other door. (The one on the left.) A hall that curves to the
right. Around the first corner and near the ceiling, three LBoDs are waiting.
Not a problem now that you have the lightsaber.
Just let these droids kill themselves by bouncing rounds off your saber. (Saber
swings and throw as well as lightning can speed things up, but carry a slightly
higher risk.) Around the next corner is another assault sentry. You can use a
radius damage weapon on it. Or run in, then saber it while circling it. (You
can literally strafe circles around these, even without speed.) Lightning works
also, but it's harder to aim.
Now go into the room all the STroopers came out of. There is a bunch of Ammo in
here also Trip-mines, a couple of Batteries, and a Bacta. Behind two familiar
droids under the stairs is a secret area. (Small Shield Generator, Bacta.) (The
larger one's first response when you press the use button near him is not
repeated again with subsequent presses. I'm not a big Star Wars fan, but...) In
the room above is an Officer with a key you need. Take it from his lifeless
body.
Time to use the elevator back in the crystal light room. Before you press the
switch, look up. Around the corner at the top, three Squad Leaders and four
STroopers await you. Use speed then select push and run thru the opening and
turn left. Head straight for the pack and press push. If they all go down, use
an Top-Down Hack to take out the nearest Squad Leader. (On the left.) Back up
the stairs and into the corner by the elevator and let the saber defense thin
things out. Strafe right if things slow down to try and put a few of the
blaster rounds into the Squad Leaders. If you're lucky, a few will find a Squad
Leader or two. Watch it though, they will try to "get behind him." Patience
here, trying to use force under heavy fire is dangerous.
When only Squad Leaders remain, slowly move back into the opening that leads to
the elevator shaft. You may get a chance to pull a weapon away. If no one
comes, look around the corner. Red cross-hair, E11 secondary. Get back to the
saber in case they rush you. When there are only one or two select push and go
after them. (It will help later on if you can get thru this with full shields.)
There are three droids waiting above the glass roof of this hall. The first two
can be taken out with the Disruptor right thru the glass. They won't attack
even though they can see you. The last one will come thru the glass before you
can see it. The saber will make short work of it. There is a door on the far
end with a security lock next to it. You have the key, so unlock it. Behind the
door is another Reborn. He'll attack as soon as the door opens. I'll offer two
possible tactics for him besides the traditional Jedi saber butt kicking.
@Option5. Save?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tactic #1: Equip the FC-1, select pull, and get centered on the doorway. Aim at
the bottom of the door and move forward to open it. As soon as it opens part
way and you see his feet, pull. If he goes down, one quick solid shot from the
FC-1 will end it. If you miss with the pull, load the last save. If you can
time the pull right it's a sure bet. (You can try adding speed to the tactic,
but I find it diddles the timing.) As soon as he's dead, equip the saber for
protection from the Squad Leader and STrooper that are also in that room.
Finish the STroopers.
Tactic #2: Equip the saber and use speed. Run by the door to open it and then
run to the elevator shaft. Drop down into it and run into the room.
Line1. Heal. Bind push and select pull, and when your force has returned, ride
the elevator up. Move into the opening, and wait for the Reborn to attack.
Ignore the STroopers and the Reborn if he just passes by the door. When he
comes towards you, throw the saber first and then use pull while backing off
the edge. At best he'll be pulled to his death, at worst he'll grip you and
drop you to yours. More likely is he will be hit by the returning saber, or
will drop down unharmed. If he's hit he may stay at the opening. If he's not at
the opening above, goto line2. Aim at or near him, switch to the FC-1. Select
push then fire. He'll jump down. Try to push him while he's in the air. Then
quickly target him and lean on the primary trigger while continuing to push.
Ride up and take out the STroopers.
Line2. If he didn't drop down goto line1. Get back on the elevator and press
the switch, then turn and push in his direction. If he gets on, goto line3.
Kill the STroopers at the top and heal. Then select push and move back into the
opening. Get clear to the edge so he can't land. He will start jumping up to
attack you. Slash and push. If he lands in the little alcoves to either side of
the opening, he will soon try to jump over and get in. Push.
Line3. Pull or push and attack him to gain time until the elevator starts up.
When it's halfway up or so, jump up to one of the small ledges to either side
of the opening. Keep attacking and using force until the elevator goes down,
then play it the same as if you were in the opening.
One of these tactics should work sooner or later. (Barring an infinite loop.)
Spaghetti code, yuck. It would be nice to get thru unscathed, but just
surviving will work. (Be sure to heal.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside the room is a security camera console. Use it to see a whole lot of
enemies running into the building you're in. Go just outside the room and look
down the hall. You can't see them, but around the corner are three Squad
Leaders, two STroopers, and an Officer. At least one of the Squad Leaders likes
to use the FC-1 secondary.
Equip the FC-1 and select mind-trick. Fire a couple orange balls down toward
the corner and count to three. (Aim high so they bounce around the corner.)
Fire a few more if you want, then get back inside the room. Equip the saber and
from a position about forty-five degrees left of the door and maybe five feet
back, aim just to the right of the left edge of the doorway. Hold down the
force button until the first one is tricked, then run in and hack or slash him.
Back away to where you were while mind-tricking again. Repeat.
You can saber throw once in awhile, but watch the force meter. Mind-trick will
drain the force meter to zero if you don't release it after it finds a target,
so let loose as soon as you see the blue particles. (Grip can also work well
combined with saber throws and attacks, but the timing is a little tougher.)
With a modicum of luck, you'll soon have a nice pile of bodies at the door.
Save?
Go to the elevator now and select speed. Down below in the crystal light room,
is an Officer (with the key to the rooms that are still locked below.) With him
are five Squad Leaders and a STrooper. *If you have full shield, and are happy
with your ammo situation there's no reason to fight.* Press the switch and get
on the elevator.
As soon as it starts down use speed and select push. Turn to the right about an
eighth turn and when you can get off, do. Use push as you get to the floor and
two to four of the guys on the right will go down. *If you are leaving, run
thru the door to the right, and don't look back. Tavion awaits you thru the
door at the end of the hall.*
If you need the Shield and Ammo Power Converters in the locked side rooms, head
down the hall to the left and thru the first door to the right. If the trip-
mines are still intact in this hall, you can work the door like you did
upstairs. If not then put your back to the wall and let the saber block. Pull
weapons from the Squad Leaders when you can and hang on. Switch to grip when it
seems right, and saber throw while they choke. (One Squad Leader uses the FC-1
secondary sometimes. And he grips it tighter than normal. Other times he fires
only primary inside the room. If it goes bad the first time, it will likely go
much better the next try.) When it's over find the officer's body. Save?
Get the key and use it across the hall. The door to the right of the lock has
the ammo power converter, the one to the left the shield converter. It also
houses a Reborn. He won't come off his perch until you enter the room though.
Select and use speed, then switch to push. Run just inside to see him drop off
the wall, then back out and run to the elevator and press the switch. Turn and
push him if he's about to get on the elevator.
At the top go into the opening and turn around. Get to the edge and wait for
him to jump up and attack. Hold down the force and attack buttons and aim in
his general direction. He should soon be laying at the bottom. *If he didn't
make it to the elevator, select push and call it up. Face toward where the
switch will be, and press it as soon as you see it. Turn around and push to
keep him off. If he gets on or doesn't end up at the bottom, load the last save
and try different timing with the run to the elevator.* @Option6.
Go back down and fill up. (Shield management.) This shield converter has one
hundred shield points, the only one in the game. Hmm. Tavion awaits you at the
end of the long hall. Save?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Lizard's Apprentice
There will be a cut scene, and afterward she'll take a few seconds to decide if
she really wants to kill such a cute bearded man with a light saber. Her
heart's black though, and she'll come for you. If you want to saber her into
submission, you could be in for battle. (There is a bacta in one of the
tunnels, and a Small Shield Generator in another.) @Option7. With just the
medium style and baby force powers you don't have much to work with.
You can try speed, but I had the best luck with pull. Her tendency toward
acrobatics seems to leave her vulnerable to pull. Used constantly it seems to
break her rhythm somewhat. It will break a grip by her just like push, but
seems to leave her on her face more often. (And closer to you.) Move around a
lot with the force button held down and you can catch her napping once in
awhile. When she's on the ground, you should be able to get at least one "Top
Down Hack" in. (Two or three if you've practiced chaining them in one spot.)
(See the "Lightsaber Tips" section near top for more on Top Down Hack.) And
usually a parting slash as you strafe away as she gets up. Save whenever you
get in a lick or two without taking damage.
A seeker let loose at the beginning _can_ make the duel much easier. (There are
plenty more drones to be had ahead.) You need to use it before she targets you,
though. And stay away from her until she focuses on the seeker. Then quickly
(speed?) get behind her while she is focused on a seeker. A pull almost always
takes her down from the back. If you stay out of her face, she will usually get
up still intent on the destroying the drone. (Stay on the side of her opposite
the drone while you hack and then back away.) Overall, this is a nice battle to
have behind you. When she cries uncle, it's over.

>in a swing between volleys of gun fire if you time it right.
>Check to see if mind-trick is absorbed by the walls in this level. In my copy
it was. If so you will no longer be able to hold down the force button.

Turn left as soon as you have control and run behind the hauler and down the
ramp into the storage area. Turn around and let the two worker bees and the
STrooper kill themselves. Then take out the Squad Leader. *There is another
Squad Leader above on the grating ledge who uses secondary shotgun fire, so
stay near the bottom of the ramp.*
Now move up to the post at the top of the ramp and use it for cover to snipe
the four guys above. The two doors on the ledge above the ship are unlocked,
but only lead to locked doors. There's Ammo in both storage areas.
(You've acquired a new saber style. (Fast.) This is a good place to try it out.
Try crouching, then press and hold forward, then press attack. If you see a
move that might go by the name of crotch-ripper, you've executed what I
consider the best saber move of the game. The Forward Lunge. It's reasonably
fast, and very powerful. The only weakness is that it must be aimed more
precisely than the horizontal slashes. Practice it until you can execute it
quickly at will.)
Go thru the door in storage area you fought from and turn right. (Large Shield
Generator.) Save. Open the door just past the shield generator to meet up with
Luke. After the cut scene, STroopers and Squad Leaders will pour thru the
doors. Pick a force, and help Luke out if you want. He'll do just fine either
way though. Same goes with the Reborn that attack from above after the
STroopers are all dead.
There are two Small Shield Generators in one storage area, Ammo and a large
stain in the other. (Is that a face?) Go thru the door you haven't been thru
yet. Around the first corner are two STroopers, around the next a Squad Leader
and a door. Inside the room are three Officers and a Squad Leader. One Officer
has a key for the lock-box in here. (Assault Sentry.)
There's a Shield Power Converter in here also, and three switches. Press the
two in the corners to power up the lifts in huge bay visible thru the window by
the other switch. Look thru the window at the bay and press the last switch. A
major battle down the drain. Oh, well. So it goes. Head back to the hangar
where you met Luke. You'll run into a STrooper and a Squad Leader on the way.
In the hangar storage area is a Squad Leader, and there are three STroopers an
Officer and another Squad Leader in the hangar proper. None are a real threat
though, usually. Go thru the hangar and out the door in the opposite storage
room (stain.)
Go up the ramp this time and to the door. Use the console to see that there is
a Squad Leader at the top of each lift. They have Repeaters and will lob
concussion grenades so open the door and run to the nearest lift. They may have
seen you, so move to a point between them. Then ease out into the room until
you can target them with the Discombobulator rifle. Zoom in on each one and
either fry them or mind trick them into forgetting they saw you.
Go to the lift farthest from the door and call it down, then ride it up. *Kill
the Squad Leader if he's still alive when you get to the top. Push?* Turn and
look out into the bay. On the wall close is a hole in a support that you can
jump to. And another beyond that. It's dark there but there is a grate you can
saber at the back of the second one. (You can put on your LAG or just feel
around with the saber until it tells you it's found something breakable.)
Secret area. (Assault Sentry, and two Batteries.)
Go thru the door into the control room, and back into the corner to your left.
When everybody has shot themselves to death, press the switch at the far end of
the room. Keep pressing it until the indicator on the right side of the panel
is lit. You can kill the other Squad Leader if you want. Now press the switch
at the other end of the room. This should cause the hangar doors to the right
to start opening. Save?
Turn around and exit, stage left. Take the lift down. At the bottom run into
the hangar and turn left. One of the Squad Leaders above has an FC-1 set on
secondary, so back down into the nearest corner of the storage area quickly. If
you get lucky the Squad Leader above will rain down orange balls on some of
your foes. When the guys on the lower level have all been sent to Imperial
Valhalla, deal with the ones up top. You can exit the storage area safely from
the other end. (You have picked up level-2 saber throw. Steerable. The guys up
top are prime targets for this, but head shooting is faster.)
When they've joined their comrades, check out the room for goodies. (Thermals,
Ammo.) There is also a lock-box. (Large Shield Converter.) Use the shuttle to
jump to the lattice walkway above. Jump up and slash the grate in the center
and then jump into the duct it covered. Turn right at the corner and press the
switch in the open area to deactivate the blue force field on the floor. Before
dropping down, back into the duct that brought you here.
A few feet back and you should notice a pair of fancy Reborn boots in the duct
below. Save? This guy has major trouble blocking Bowcaster bounce shots aimed
in front of him from here, but he is also one of the easiest Reborn saber kills
in the game now that you have the fast saber style. *These confined quarters do
not favor zombie faux-Jedi over a man with blue lightsaber style.*
Select the blue (fast) stance. Use speed, drop down, enter the duct, stop, link
Forward Lunge saber moves 'till he buckles. ("Forward Lunge" It's in the book,
or see the "Lightsaber Tips" section for a description. It displaces the gun
attacks in this walkthrough as the easiest tactic for Jedi type enemies.)
Another method is to select push, move just into the duct and wait for him to
attack. As soon as he starts toward you, use the move. If he grips, push. (Your
saber need not be activated when you start a move.) Not foolproof, but close.
Follow the duct he was guarding to the corner, then turn right. Take the next
left to get to the next open area and switch. Press the switch, turn around and
drop down. Take the duct to the right, then turn left. Press the switch and
drop down. You'll be on a large grate.
There's another smaller grate on this level. Find it, then snipe the Officer
below. Drop into the control room he was in and press the switch. (Supply key,
and two Small Shield Converters.) Turn around, one of the guys outside may come
in. The switch here is one half of a two-part lock. The other switch is in the
control room opposite this one.
Kill everyone outside (Ammo) and go into the second control room. Press the
switch to finish unlocking the door at the bottom of the ramp. There's another
switch on a wall. Press it to deactivate the security in the room behind you.
When you leave this room, an Officer, a Squad Leader, and three STroopers will
come thru the small door outside. Kill them and go down the ramp and thru the
unlocked door. There's an Ammo Power Converter and a Battery near the door. A
lock-box with a Seeker Drone is down at the end of the hall.
One of the elevators is stuck in its shaft, in you go. Destroy the grate and
jump into the duct. Save. Destroy the next grate, and wait for the elevator.
Drop onto it as it rises, and don't turn. Ride for a cycle and you'll see where
you need to get off. Get off while it's going down. Wait for the next elevator,
and get on. Again, don't turn.
You'll see that you are going to have to jump. Save. You'll want to jump when
the elevator is slightly lower than the opening. You will also want to hit the
jump button at the middle of the elevator your standing on (after starting a
run from the back of the elevator shaft). It also seems to help if the elevator
is going down. Get on the next elevator and drop thru the hole in the ceiling
to end the level.

>Rank-2 Grip. (See the "Force Tips" section.)
>New weapon, Destructive Electro Magnetic Pulse 2 gun. (DEMP gun.) Very
>effective on mech. enemies. Some damage to tissue, but generally ineffective
>against live targets.
You'll still be in the elevator but it's stopped. A dark-side droid will give
you away. Destroy it for vengeance. Ah, sweet vengeance. (You can pull it into
the elevator and destroy it to avoid detection, but that will gain you little.)
Three worker bees, and a Squad Leader will now attack. Kill them. (If you move
to the left inside the elevator, you'll be in the sights of an auto-turret.)
Run out and turn left to get to safety.
There's another turret around the other corner. (Your saber throw works well
around corners with a little practice.) Take them both out, then mind-trick the
officer at the switch. He'll unlock the door for you. Go thru the door and
thank him for his trouble. (Ammo.) Go thru the other door in here and kill the
two Officers and two STroopers. (Ammo.) Take a gander at the assembly bay, then
look around the room you're in.
There's a door at one end, and a lift at the other. Ride the lift up, then kill
the Officer (Supply Key) and Squad Leader up here. (Shield Power Converter,
Ammo.) Save the shield converter if you're less than fifty, there's quite a few
shield generators ahead. There's also a switch in here, the significance of
which eludes me. It moves an access platform at the top of the assault lander
visible thru the window slightly away from it. Press it or no? I didn't.
Go back down and thru the door. Another lift, another ride. Go thru the door
and you'll be in the assembly bay. There's a couple of worker bees on the floor
to kill. There's also some Ammo, Batteries, and a lock-box. (Two Small Shield
Generators.) There is another door at the top of a lift in the corner, but it's
locked. Climb the assault lander frame to where you can jump to the walkway on
one wall. Save.
Make the jump and slash the grate. Move inside and destroy the four important
looking round tubes in here to make the robotic welding unit outside go
bonkers. Move out to the edge of the walkway and watch the explosion that opens
an exit. Go back down pretty much the way you came up. Head thru the hole to
find a survivor. Not for long, eh? The big door will open as you approach it.
In the next room are two STroopers, two worker bees, and a Squad Leader to
kill. (Ammo, and Thermals.)
On one side of the room is a door that opens on another door. In the next room
and the hallway off of it are two STroopers, two Officers, six Squad Leaders,
and a worker bee. 'Could get hectic (Kurt?) (You could just get to a corner
inside this next room, and let saber defense do its thing. The second wave of
Squad Leaders can be a problem, though.)
Select speed and go thru the first door. Use speed and press the switch to open
the door. Run thru the room and bear right. (Jump over any obstacles, or give
them a push.) At the end of the hall turn right again. Head straight for the
door switch and press it. Quickly get thru the door and off to one side. Wait
'till the door closes, then select grip and position yourself to the left of
the door at a forty-five-degree angle.
Open the door and there should be a guy there. If you're in the right spot,
he's the only one that can fire. Push and hold the force button to choke him,
then strafe to the left a bit to be safe. The door will close but the grip
works thru walls once you have someone in it. When it lets go, he's dead. Get
back into position and let the force build back up if need be. Open the door
and do it again. After a while the remaining guys may get understandably leery
of the door. Strafe out with it open to try and bait them in. When nobody will
move to the trap, move just inside the door and mop up.
When it gets real quiet, snipe the assault sentry at the top of the ramp ahead.
Now turn left and go back toward the consoles. There's usually an Officer
(Supply Key) there to kill. Grab the goodies (Ammo, Seeker Drone) and use the
consoles to see what's ahead and behind. Now go back to where the sentry was
and take out another one at the bottom of the ramp. Move down the ramp and to
the left side of the door.
There's an Officer far off and a worker bee close to the right in the next
room, and a Squad Leader close to the left. The Squad Leader fires orange
balls. Open the door with the saber equipped for protection and locate the
first two guys. (You'll notice that your electrical tampering earlier has
apparently had some far reaching effects.) The first two guys are relatively
easy to snipe using the door jamb for cover. You'll probably have to open the
door a few times, though. Save?
Use speed then open the door and run in to the safe spot behind the boxes.
(Mind the electricity.) Head shoot the Squad Leader from here. Save? Jedi-jump
your way over to the barrels with blue on them. Mind-trick the STrooper who's
firing at you, then fry or head shoot him. (The ten-second level-2 mind-trick
makes this much less stressful.) From the next set of boxes you can get into
the assault lander. (Batteries.)
Ride the lift, then go thru the window and drop down to the walkway. Head to
the control booth and press the switch on the left to turn off the rogue power
below. Your choice again on the other switch. I didn't push it. (Large Shield
Generator, Ammo Power Converter, and Ammo.) Ride the lift in the corner down to
the floor. Save?
Back track for a shield boost if you need to. When you get back, move over to
the iris style door and open it. There are three Squad Leader's behind it,
glued to the floor. Move close to the door to start it opening, then back up
behind the boxes in front of it. Snipe the guy on the right around the edge of
the box with one of your blaster weapons. (You'll need to be quick.) Then open
the door again and get to the left where only the center guy can see you and
choke him to death. Open the door a final time to choke and saber the last guy.
Center yourself on the next door and ease up 'till it opens. Let the STrooper
kill himself with his own fire. A Squad Leader will show up after the STrooper
dies. Back up and let the door close. Get the left of the door, then strafe
right a bit to open it. Grip the close Squad Leader, then strafe left to avoid
the fire of the one up above if he's firing. Hold the grip 'till it lets go.
Open the door and run up close to the boxes that the assault sentry is on.
Throw your saber over and behind the sentry then let go of the trigger. When
you get it right, it will take out the sentry on its return.
Now go around the right side of the boxes. Ease down the wall until you can see
the Squad Leader on the other side of the room. He won't fire but you can
target him for a head shot or two. Move up to where you can do the same to the
first guy on this side. (You can also use your saber again like you did with
the sentry.) Move down to the last guy and finish the room. Save?
The walkway above leads to a door. The one on the other side of the room has
some Ammo. Enter the next room and check it out. There's a dark-side R2
cruising around, and trip-mine beams left and right. Also a Seeker Drone in the
same spot as the last one you found, and two security consoles to the left. To
the right you'll see a lift. Jump over the trip-mine trigger beams, but look up
before you do. *The sloped ceiling will change your trajectory if you hit it.
You can use it, or avoid it.* You can also use saber throw to take out one of
the lower mines. If you do jump over them, you should blow up the lower ones
once you're inside anyway. Grab the drone, use the consoles if you wish, and
ride the lift down. (Two Small Shield Generators, and Ammo.)
In the next room two Reborn of different flavors await. Save? Select grip, open
the door and move a few steps out. As soon as the one on the right stops, use
grip and choke him to death. As soon as he goes, the other will attack. Get
away from the door and avoid his attacks while your force meter fills enough
for a grip. You can't choke him to death but the Rank-2 grip will stun him.
Continue to avoid him while trying to connect with a grip. When you do, start
working toward him using short grips to stun. Attack with a Forward Lunge when
you get within range. If it connects, he's dead, if not try again.
The combination of Rank-2 grip and a solid connection with the Forward Lunge is
devastating to Reborn. Combined with speed, it's almost too easy. If they are
using push to break the grip, use short duration grips. *See the "Lightsaber
Tips" section for a description of "Forward Lunge"* @Option8. When he's gone
head out into the room they were in, and look around. Save? Nothing here, head
thru the two iris doors into a room with six large crates in two rows of three.
Stop inside the door.
As you approach the crates, two AT-XXs will bust out of the end crates of the
row closest. So from the door, run to and jump up onto the center crate. Move
onto the center crate in the other row and crouch. Face the pilotless mechs and
wait for them to get hung up at the end of the rows. Get to the center of the
crate, then back away from the two to the edge of the crate. (There's another
one of these things in a crate behind you. It's fine as long as you don't step
on it, or get in front of it.)
Stand and throw your saber slightly right of the one closest to you. Hold down
the trigger, and adjust the height with the right stick 'till it's spinning
around and hitting the mech's torso. Keep it up 'till it goes down. The other
should move into position for its turn. (There's a DEMP gun on the floor in an
open crate to the left of the big crates that works well on these guys. Grab it
on the way to the top of the crates to use it instead of the saber throw. It's
effective on most mechanical enemies. The downside is the same as any gun,
needs ammo and no saber defense.)
When it gets quiet, drop down and put your saber in the last one's face. He'll
be restricted by the crate and an easy "kill." Use lightning to speed things
up. Avoid swinging or throwing the saber. Strafe back and forth in a small area
to get contact with the guns. These guys can take a lot more punishment than
other enemies, but other than that they present little more threat than a
STrooper. If they don't get behind you, your safe for the most part.
Afterward, another Reborn may announce himself. He's up on the walkway in front
of the door. He slept thru force push class, so choke him. (Be sure your force
meter's full.) There's a grate in one corner you can break. Secret Area. (Two
Large Shield Generators, Thermals, DEMP Ammo, and an Assault Sentry.) Save?
Inside the next room is a lift. Turn toward the blue light as the lift nears
the top to be facing the right direction. At the top you'll find a fire fight
with three Officers, five STroopers, and a Squad Leader. (This outfit's top
heavy, no wonder they're failing.) An auto-turret will also join in the fray.
Move out into the room to get the second turret firing, you've got places to
go. When yours is the only heartbeat in the room, back up to where the turrets
can't hit you, and take them out. Now that it's safe, cruise the room for
bootie. (Ammo, Bacta, a Battery, two Small Shield Generators, and an assault
sentry in the lock-box.)
There's a door at the end of a hall. Use speed then open the door. Run to the
end of the room jumping over anyone who gets in the way. Turn around as you
near the switch. Now slowly make your way back toward the door, taking care not
let anyone get behind you. When it gets still, check out the room. Save?
Two of the five Officers have Supply Keys. Two E-11s and two Repeaters lie on
the floor. There's some Ammo and two Small Shield Generators near one wall. And
a switch at the end of the room. When you press it the assault lander will
move, and Kyle will find another little piece of his puzzle. The only way to go
seems to be back.
At the door you'll be sure, there's a Reborn waiting on the other side.
@Option9. Use speed, then run to the lock-box and get behind it. Select push
and wait for him to make the mistake of jumping next to a deep hole. (He loves
to jump.) You may have to strafe out and back a few times to get him where you
want him, but sooner or later he'll make his last mistake.
You can also use grip and the Forward Lunge on him. He's a quick pusher though,
so use short grips. Call the lift and ride it down. At the bottom go thru the
door to face another Reborn. Speed, grip, Forward Lunge. Go thru the iris door
to face two more Reborn. The one with the yellow hood can be choked. Dance
around the other one 'till you have enough force for a grip or two, finish with
the Forward Lunge.
As soon as the second one dies an AT-ST will come out of a door near the
assault lander and come gunning for you. Avoid its fire and get to the room
with the assault lander. There will be a door to the left of the lander. If you
go thru it now, the ST will probably follow you in and create problems. So
instead go the other side of the lander for cover. Save?
Carefully bait the ST to the side of the lander opposite the door if it's not
already there. When its feet are off the conveyor, make a run for the door. Go
thru the left side of it and turn left as soon as you are inside. Get to the
corner and turn to face the assault sentry. It will have started to activate
but shouldn't be firing. Save?
Moving much farther into the room will bring four Squad Leaders running. At the
far end of the room are stairs on both sides that lead to the walkway above.
Under the stairs are holes leading to a maintenance tunnel. Upstairs is Ammo of
all flavors, below is the exit and Power Converters of both types. *If you need
the ammo up above, take out the sentries and move toward the stairs to bring
the Squad Leaders out. If you fight from a cubby hole a sentry was in, it isn't
too bad. Just wait for a chance to grip and saber throw. There will usually be
times when only one of them can fire at you. When it's just you and the last
one, chase him down and do something ugly.*
If you don't need major ammo, use speed and run toward the stairs. Avoid the
Squad Leaders that will be coming out. At the stairs turn right then hug the
wall and run off into the hole at the end. You should land past the trip-mines.
Clear the mines to get to the converters and the hole in the middle. Drop into
the hole to end this level.

>New weapon, the Merr-Sonn Portable Missile System. Primary fire is a high
>explosive tipped self-propelled missile, the secondary is homing.
You'll be facing a Reborn right off the bat, with cyclic bad joojoo beams
between you and him. Run past the first beam to the safe area between, then
choke this little red riding hood. Then run past the next beam and move to the
corner. (The entire tube these beams are in is deadly, not just the beams.) Use
force speed just after the beam activates, then run down the tunnel, and turn
into the side shaft on the left. Stop as soon as you are safe from the beam
behind you. You'll be facing another Reborn.
He paid attention in force push class. Save? First move up to where you're
between the first two lights. He won't arm himself, and you'll be within force
range. (Bind force speed to one of the quick buttons here.) For a gun kill, use
the trusty FC-1 primary. Speed works well with it. He likes to saber-throw, and
he's wide open when he does. (Don't get hit.) You can rush in and out while
firing to throw him off. Pull or push held down for distraction while firing
can work. Many times he won't get his saber out or get off a force move when
you first attack. If that attack was an FC-1 shot he'll be done.
For a saber kill, use speed, select and use grip, then rush in and tear him
apart with fast style saber moves while he's stunned. (A single well-aimed
Forward Lunge will also do.) *See the "Lightsaber Tips" section for a
description of "Forward Lunge"* Save?
Let your force meter fill, then make the next tunnel run. There's another
Reborn waiting, and he'll be close when you exit the tunnel. Hit the speed and
make the run. Kill the waiting Reborn or just run by him and past the first
beams to the safe area behind them. He'll soon try to follow, but his timing is
usually off.
When he's no longer a threat, throw your saber at the bright pink crystals to
turn off the beams and blow a couple of holes in the wall. Move to the big one
and prepare to make another tunnel run. Save? *If you try hard enough with the
third person cam, you can see some steam leaking from a broken pipe near the
ceiling out in the tunnel. You'll also see that the pipe is in a vertical
shaft.*
These beams were hard to judge on my game. I ended up backing up close to the
hole to put the third person cam in the hole. When I saw the glow of the beam
on Kyle's back, I used speed and backed into the tunnel. Take the first right
to find a dead worker bee and some Medi-paks. There's a T at the end of this
short tunnel. It's a trap.
So go back out into the long tunnel after the next beam cycle and continue on
to the corner. *In my game, the beams here were hard to judge, not at all
consistent in timing.* Another Reborn is waiting patiently. Speed, grip, rush,
unzip again. Look around the next corner to see the source of the bad beamery,
and a switch.
Run in when it's safe and hit the switch. (Assault Sentry, Small Shield
Generator, Medi-pak.) You can back-track or take the other open tunnel for a
minor short cut. You're heading back to the vertical shaft near the pink
crystals. A little red Reborn hood will drop from the shaft just asking to be
choked. Oblige him and use the piping to climb the shaft.
At the top follow the short tunnel to an open area. Small jumping puzzle. Turn
left and make your way to the second low platform. Save? Wait for the beam to
stop, then jump up onto the platform and look up at the next. Repeat. Jump from
the highest one up into the opening where a door will open. Kill the Squad
Leader, STrooper, and two worker bees inside, and go thru the door.
Turn right and run off the lattice walkway onto the ledge. Move down the ledge
and drop to the highest pipe, and then to the pipe beside it. Crouch and move
over the walkway, then drop down. Kill the Squad Leader that's here and move
away from the door you came in. You'll need to get to the other side of the
rotating red reactor thingy. Go high or go low, but get across.
Follow the walkway to the end where you'll see some pipes to drop to. Jump over
to the two pipes that form a bridge to the other side. There are three worker
bees below (Ammo, Medi-Pak,) drop down and kill them if you want. Jump up to
the opening and follow the tunnel to the next section. Use the pipes to get to
the other side and jump up to the opening there. Around the corner two Squad
Leaders are chatting. They have to go.
In the room they were looking out into are three worker bees down on the floor,
and three Squad Leaders and two STroopers at windows above (at the far end).
You can snipe a few of the Squad Leaders and STroopers using the corner here
for cover. Then drop down to the ledge on the left. Drop down to the bees and
kill them if you want. Make your way to the far end the room.
Find the little hole in either corner and make your way under it. Jump up thru
the hole and kill the remaining enemies. (Ammo, Medis.) Thru the doorway are
two worker bees to kill. You need to get to the far end of this room. Touching
the rotating arms will have the same effect as being shot with a fully charged
Disruptor rifle. You'll notice a Reborn waiting for you a ways ahead if your
eyes are good. Save?
Make your way down the rotating arm just before the Reborn. If you don't mind
wasting the ammo, he has trouble blocking Disruptor shots to the 'lower torso.'
Or just run by him. He may follow, but seems unaware of the dangers of the
rotating arms, and the steep sides. Before you jump over the last two arms,
zoom in and check out the large platform you're heading for. Take out the two
sentries you'll see. (Disruptor ammo is a little scarce.)
Four STroopers will come out the door after the next jump. Let them commit
suicide using your saber defense, then make the last jump. In the next familiar
looking hallway pipes are running overhead. There's an Assault Sentry on the
highest one. Thru the next door is another Reborn. He's susceptible to grip so
no big deal. However, there's also two worker bees to the right of the door.
And three STroopers and a Squad Leader at the far end on two platforms that
will rise when you enter the room. Not to mention an Officer on a lower level
to the right. Save?
Select grip and go thru the door. Turn left a quarter turn and run off the edge
to drop down to the lowest ledge on this side. Move over to the right wall and
let your saber defense kill the two STroopers who fire at you from above. When
they're dead, ease back to the left and snipe the Squad Leader and STrooper up
high on the other side.
Then jump back up to the highest flat ledge, and shoot at the Reborn if he
doesn't attack. Grip will kill him. Then head over to where the worker bees
are, and take care of them. Kill the Officer next, and take his key. Use it on
the lock-box in the corner if you want another Assault Sentry. If you'd rather
have another Seeker Drone, hang onto the key. (Ammo.) Ride the lift down to the
lower area. *There's a switch that will start the transport on a trip around
the edge. A rocket wielding Squad Leader will soon appear at the far end intent
on cutting the trip short. You'll have to take him out, and jump from the
transport to the nearest structure before it falls to the depths below.*
If you don't press the switch, you won't have to deal with the rocket man. Just
jump over to the nearest structure hanging from the wall. And then make your
way around the room jumping from structure to structure. If you ride the
transport you'll save a few jumps, but it's much more risky. Your choice.
When you get to the other end, a worker bee will attack. There will be a lift,
but before you ride follow the narrow ledge around the corner if you want the
secret. (Thermals and a Battery.) At the top of the lift are two STroopers and
a Squad Leader. (Batteries, a Merr-Sonn Portable Missile System, and Ammo.)
*Some of the enemies here will raise their hands and not seek weapons after
you've force pulled them. You now have the option of taking prisoners. They
won't follow or take orders, but are no longer a threat. A few will try to fool
you though. Moral dilemma.*
Deal with these three and go thru the door. There's a bridge leading to a door
guarded by two more STroopers. If you follow the ledge around both sides of the
building, you'll find some Bacta, a Large Shield Generator, and some Ammo.
Inside the door it's dark. And still a long ways down. Turn left or right and
go the far end of the room. Take the large lift up.
At the top there are two Officers at each of two consoles on either side.
There's a switch you need to press on the right. These guys have no keys so
push them off if you want. Note the door with a security lock. Call the lift
and ride it back down. There are four STroopers below you can snipe from up
here, or deal with them when you go down. Take either of the small lifts. On
this level is a large lift and a lock-box. If you kept the key, grab the seeker
drone. Save?
At the bottom of this lift are five Officers, one of which has the key to the
locked door at the top. There is also a Reborn that doesn't like to be choked.
Grip and a Forward Lunge will take him, but the Officers may get in a shot or
two. Better to just use speed near the bottom, run to and kill the light
uniformed Officer on the left side, and grab his key. Run back to the lift, and
ride it back up. It may take a few tries, but it will work. Make your way to
the top and unlock the door. On the other side are two STroopers and a Squad
Leader who fires FC-1 secondaries. So take him out first and quick, and go thru
the door to end the level.

Go thru the door into a room full of boxes. There are three other doors. One is
locked. Thru the iris door you'll find a veritable arsenal, and a Power
Converter of each type. There are also an Assault Sentry and a Seeker Drone.
Thru the other door is a room where dark STrooper style armor hangs in glass
cases. A ramp leads down to what looks to be a training area. Grab whatever
stuff you can carry from the arsenal, and go just into the training area.
As soon as you move close to the end of the glass platform, two Dark STroopers
will emerge from a hole in the center of the room. These guys have tough suits,
sweet moves, and plenty of force power savvy. Do we have to start with two?
Aarrgghh. Save? I tried a lot of different things with these two combative
cortosis ("mutated red" variety ;) clad contenders for the training room
throne. Two tactics stand out. They have a high probability of success if
applied correctly, but may take some practice to make work. (There is a Small
Shield Generator on one of the platforms, BTW.) *This a great place to load the
last save a few times and get a feel for saber battles with Shadow Troopers.*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, strafe off the glass platform to drop down to the floor below, then back
up to the wall.
Tactic #1: Select blue style for the saber, then equip the Merr-Sonn PMS, and
select speed. Bind force push to one of the 'quick' buttons. Select the seeker
drones. Aim for the center of the hole they emerge from, then lower the
cross-hair to the edge of the large hole. (Where the floor drops about a foot.)
Use speed then select grip and without changing the vertical aim, move forward
to where the cross-hair is on the point where the lid meets the edge of the
hole the Shadow Troopers are hiding in. (The far edge of the small hole's lid.)
*Getting in, aimed, and firing needs to happen smoothly for this to work. If
you spend much time moving forward and back to be aimed correctly, you won't
stand a chance.* Fire two or three quick shots, then start circle strafing
(left seems natural to me) _slowly_ around the hole. The vertical aim should be
the same as you set up before. (Where the lid met the edge of the hole.) Fire
whenever you are on target or close. Continue to fire even if some of the
rounds are being pushed back. The strafe _should_ keep you safe.
If you have trouble maintaining your aim, consider changing the sensitivity
settings of the sticks. If you rock at circle strafing you can get away with a
faster strafe. If the game smiles on you, the STroopers that enter the room
when the Shadow Troopers have died will soon announce themselves. If it frowns,
load the last save. If one Shadow Trooper dies and the other doesn't, equip the
saber and let loose a seeker. *The seeker is optional, it distracts him but
also can cause him to ready his saber sooner after a grip. He may also turn
toward it. It _can_ buy you time to get your wits and locate the green pill and
build force, though.* Save?
As soon as you can, target the Shadow Trooper then grip him and move in. (Hold
the force button down while moving toward him.) As soon as he breaks the grip,
hit him with another, a short one this time. Keep moving in and using short
grips until you are within striking distance, then deliver a Forward Lunge. If
you miss, try again. *See the "Lightsaber Tips" section for a description of
the "Forward Lunge" if you need one.* If you run low on force and the force
crystal (large green pill) wasn't trapped in the hole, find and get to it for a
boost. If gripped, use push to break. (Quick button.)
Tactic #2: Equip the saber (fast style) and select the seeker drone. Bind force
push to one of the 'quick' buttons. Use speed, then select pull. Run to the
center of the hole the Shadow Troopers are in and look straight down. (You
don't have to be in the exact center.) As the cover retracts you'll move with
it, turn to face the center of the hole if necessary. If you can make out your
two adversaries, try to aim between them. (Don't raise the vertical aim
though.)
When you have your aim and the cover is almost retracted, press and _hold_
jump. Near the top of your jump, use pull then immediately pull back on the
left stick to move out of the way. If the game smiles, they will both be flung
up into the rafters. And shortly there after drop their booty. If the game
frowns, grimaces, or farts, load the last save. If only one is launched, select
grip and let loose a seeker. Save? Then use the tactic above to fight him. You
will be down on force and will want to get to the green pill sooner than above
if the fight lasts very long.
Tactic #3: Huh? If you find the grip, Forward Lunge combo easy to do under
pressure, try taking on both Shadows at the same time. With a seeker loose, you
can usually fight one at a time. If you bind speed to the other quick button,
you can use it after a successful grip (his saber extinguished) to give you an
even greater advantage. This can be risky, your force meter will be low. If you
pull it off on the first one and get his force pill, you'll be in good shape.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kill the STroopers that show up, then enter the room to get the Security Key
from the Officer inside. Go back thru the arena and the room with the suits to
the ante room with the locked door. Hit the arsenal rooms again, then use the
Security Key. Follow the hall to a room with a lift and a switch to activate
it. After Kyle observes that stealth will be required, ride the lift down.
Save? Before you go thru the door down here, select mind-trick and sheath your
saber. (Bind it to a quick button. It can be heard as well as seen.) Turn right
as you enter the room and crouch.
Ease around the boxes and mind-trick the worker bee and nearest STrooper.
Quickly get into the duct on the right. Follow it clear to the end and exit.
There's another Shield Power Converter in the building to the left. If you need
to use it, sneak thru the front door (easier just to wait a bit, though).
There's a lift nearby, ride it up. Save? @Extra2.
There will be some elongated egg-shaped generators that look unhealthy to be
near in one direction. In the other direction you'll see a narrow ledge over on
the building. Jump to it and find the short tunnel that leads inside. There is
an Officer across the room on same level as you. And some worker bees below at
their panels. The Officer will sound the alarm near him if he sees you and gets
to it. Kill him. (Pull is quick.) *Once he's dead you can kill the guys below
and use the power converter.*
Press the switch to power down the generators for a short time. Then go back
outside thru the little hole and jump back across. Jump between two generators
on the right end, find the steps and get to safety before the generators come
back on. There are three Officers (Supply Key) standing at panels here. If you
move just onto the steps, they won't turn around. (No saber.) They like to run
to the next section, so kill them quickly.
*You can duck at the right side of the steps and pull two of them over you to
an electrical death. (Wait for the generators to come back on first.) The one
with the key is heavy though, and you'll have to kill him another way.* There's
a Small Shield Generator in the lock-box. Save at the lock-box. The next room
will have quite a few enemies including a Squad Leader with a Merr-Sonn, but at
least the alarm is broken. And they are on an elevator that doesn't come up
until you move into the next hall. Save?
Ready your saber then move to the corner and run thru the small opening into a
long passage way. Use speed just before you enter the passage way then select
pull. At the end of the hall go thru the opening on the left side. Turn left
just past the first stack of crates, then right at the end of them. You'll see
a large square hole in the floor. A lift is headed up inside the hole with most
of the enemies on it. There is an Officer to the right of the hole, ignore him.
Run straight for the middle of the hole.
About ten feet away aim at your feet and run right off into the hole. When you
are over the middle of the lift, hit pull. Keep going to the edge of the lift
to avoid being killed or injured by falling bodies. O_o Turn toward the right
to block the Officers fire if he's alive. Mop up the room if necessary and grab
the Security Key off the little machine. *This may take a few tries to get
right, but when it works it works very well. And while it is quite noisy, it's
kinda' fun. *Save?
There's an Assault Sentry on one of the crates. Use the key on the door and go
thru the next room. Hug the wall to avoid be zapped by the electrified pipes.
The next door opens on one corner of a room with a pit of more deadly looking
pipes between you and the other end. Get to the wall to the left and move along
it until the small crate stops you. You'll be able to aim at the alarm between
the door and the vertical pipe from there.
Equip the Merr-Sonn and aim at the lower edge of the red light on the alarm,
and wait for the guy that's patrolling to get near the Officer. Fire two
primary missiles by holding down the trigger. This usually takes down the
Officer and STroopers. Maintain the aiming point and fire one more primary as
soon as you see the Squad Leader. The missile should make it to the alarm
before him. Use the pipes in the far corner to jump up to the machine and get
across.
*You can also use speed or crouch to get to the other end of the room. Then
climb the pipes up to the top of the machine and go across. Drop down to the
ledge crouched, and then down to the next edge and get into the corner. You can
then stand undetected. Snipe the Officer with the Disruptor then switch to the
saber and drop down to guard the alarm.*
The Officer has a Supply Key for the lock-box. (Bacta.) Go thru another room of
pipes to avoid and into a small open area. There is a Secret area up in the
corner opposite the other door in here. Use the light to get up to the narrow
ledge to the left of the door. Save? Douse the saber then find and go thru the
small hole and move to the switch. (There are a couple of Small Shield
Generators near the switch.) Charge up with the power bot if you need to, and
select the LAG if you want. When you press the switch, it will turn off the
lights in the room momentarily. You need to make your way to the door on the
other side of the room, and go thru it while the room is dark.
There is plenty of time, but you need to hurry for a different reason. An
Officer will begin to patrol when the lights go out. So move quickly to the
left wall (looking out into the room) after you activate the LAG and press the
switch. Crouch and drop down then follow the wall to the door switch. Quickly
press it and go thru the door. When the door closes you can safely stand and
fire up the saber.
*This room can be tricky to get thru. If you are getting caught, try adding
force speed to the mix. Or stopping between the rows of Officers and mind-
tricking the one walking, and the one at the left side switch array.*
There are two Officers in the next room that need to be killed before they can
get to alarms. (The one on the right seems to have heavier shields, make sure
he's dead.) Two Reborn are also just beyond the door. They are both close and
will attack as soon as they see you. Ready your saber and use speed then press
the switch to open the door. Get to and kill both Officers quickly, then run
and jump your way to the lift at the far end of the room. @Option10. Ride the
lift up, then use speed again and follow the catwalk to the ship. The door on
this side is locked, but the one on the other side of the ship is open. Enter
the Doomgiver to end the level.

>Rank 3 Saber defense. Higher percentage of shot reflections.
As soon as you move very far STroopers will attack. Try out your new Rank-3
saber defense. The STroopers should soon be gone. Find the elevator and ride it
down, then exit and get to a corner. More STroopers will fire at your saber
until they die. The Squad Leader you may have to kill. There are two
auto-turrets down here, get close and they will commit mechanical suicide. The
only door is locked but the switch is nearby, watch your back though. (Small
Shield Generator.) More STroopers and an Officer (Security Key) will arrive.
There's a Large Shield Generator in one of the side rooms. Beyond the two rooms
is a door. Kill the Squad Leader and ride the lift up. Kill the Officer and get
his Supply Key. Save?
You'll notice a small opening with a blue force field blocking entry on either
side of the room. Also, two side doors beyond the consoles and a locked door at
the far end. There are grates in the ceilings of both side rooms. The one in
the room to the right leads to a secret area guarded by interrogator droids.
Ow. (Thermals, Trip-Mines, and a Large Shield Generator in a lock-box.) If you
can't use the shield, just save the key.
*Use saber throw or the DEMP gun to take out the droids. The DEMP takes two
primary shots to destroy one, but the first shot pushes them away. A secondary
will destroy multiple droids when it contacts them. If they get close, they
inject you with something that decreases your health and distorts your vision.
You'll also take a small shield hit. You can heal in between the health hits.
(Press the force button after each "oo-augh.") You may want to bind health to
a quick button. Force push can give you some breathing room.*
Destroy the grate in the other room and jump up into the duct. (More droids.)
You can go left or right from the grate. To the left is a room with a lock-box.
(Seeker Drone.) To the right is another grate. In the room below the grate is
an Officer (Supply Key) at a switch. There are some R5s in here too. Open the
door that leads back to the room you were in before, then press the switch to
control one of the droids.
Steer the droid thru the door and to the far end of the hall. Go thru the small
opening to the right. Move around the room until you find a droid size door.
Press the blinking red switch next to it. (Assault Sentry.) The guards will
notice and attack the droid. Grab another one and steer it to the opening on
left this time. Open the locked door, and exit the console. Save?
Go into the side room to your left and on into the next room. Kill the Squad
Leader and STroopers then take the lift down. There's a Shield Power Converter
in an alcove in this room. Open the silver door and then back into the room
once you've been noticed. Take out the two attack mice that will come for you.
Then go back out into the room and take care of the STroopers and auto-turrets.
Make your way to the vertical pipes in the center of the room. Behind the pipes
is a section of glass floor. *There is a secret area around the corner off a
narrow ledge to the left.*
Crash thru the section of glass floor, but be prepared for a droid or two (or
three, or...). When it's safe, ride the lift at the far end up and kill the
worker bees at the top. (Ammo, Medi-Paks.) There are four switches by the
window. *FYI Each calls a tram. The two outer switches call the lower trams,
the inner ones the upper trams.* Call the left lower (or all,) and then go thru
one of the doors. STroopers will come to be slaughtered. When they are no more,
make your way to the door you haven't been thru yet. (Bottom of the stairs to
the left, from the room with the switches you just pushed.)
There's a Ammo Power Converter, a couple doors and a lift. Ride the lift up and
kill the Squad Leader and STroopers to collect the Assault Sentry the droid
made available earlier. Ride back down and take the lower tram. Save? *Try
throwing your saber as the tram moves. Throw in the opposite direction the tram
is moving. Oops.* At the other end go up the stairs. There are a couple of
sentries at the top. (And around just about every corner.) Officers, Squad
Leaders and STroopers in large numbers also call this hall home. (Ammo.) Kill
them all. (Or let them kill each other and themselves.)
When it's over, find the Officer and get his Security Key. Open the door with
it, and take out the Squad Leaders, STroopers, and sentries in this room. The
console for the comm. array is at one end of the room, but it's offline. There
are two side doors. Clear out the STroopers that are behind them, then check
out the room they led to. There are three color-coded booths, each with a
console inside showing symbols. Look in your Data-pad for the code. (Scroll.)
You will need to ride the lift down and find the rooms with the symbols in your
Data-pad. When you press the switch in a room, the symbol displayed will be
locked into the console of the corresponding booth above. When all three
symbols have been entered above, the comm. array will be brought online. There
are three levels of rooms. The top level is red, the next is green, and the
lowest level is blue. There are nine rooms per level. You'll be jumping and
running off the edges to get to the symbols. It's a long ways down in here, and
there are a few worker bees in here who don't like to be surprised. You might
want to save often. When all the symbols have been locked in, make your way
back up to the comm. console.
The 'top down' diagram below shows the location of the correct symbols.

I would go for the blue symbol first, from the lift. Run off, run off, run off
straight down the left side of the center rooms after the first drop. (From the
left side of the ledge at the lift, move to the center for the last drop to the
doorway.) There's a secret area behind this room on a small ledge. (Seeker
Drone, Det-Paks, Bacta.)
Then go back down the center rooms on the blue level roofs. At the end turn
left, and jump up into the doorway of green room for the second symbol. Jump up
to the green roof opposite the doorway, and then jump across to the green roof
ahead. Jump up to the walkway, turn around and enter the room with the final
symbol. Jump from the walkway to the roof of the green room nearest the lift.
Jump up to the ledge around the lift and ride the lift up.

When you get back to the room with the symbol booths, press the switch in each
booth to enter the symbol displayed. Make your way to the comm array, and press
the switch. (When you press this switch, the door to the rest of the level
locks, if you need anything behind you get it first.) When the cut scene ends,
go back out into the booth room and behind the blue booth the door is open. Go
thru it to end the level.

>will be targeted by other enemies if they can see you. If not, your buddy

>carries an FC-1. He's effective enough and easy to retire. *I take them out
>the most humane way possible in the game. (If screaming is any indication.)
>Fully charged Disruptor shot to the head.*
Around the first corner, a Squad Leader is talking with a STrooper. You can try
out the rank 3 mind-trick on one if want or just kill them yourself. Move into
the next room and advance until you are fired on. Get to a corner and let these
guys thin themselves out. One of the Officers has a Security Key. When it's
quiet, explore the room.
There's an auto-turret over the door at the far end to take out. The lock-box
is close to where you came in. (Assault Sentry.) The walkway by the large
window has a Power Converter at each end. The Security Key unlocks the door off
the walkway. There's a lift inside that goes to a room with an Officer (supply
Key) and a Shadow Trooper inside. There's also a mini game. Save?
If you want to go in, connecting a Forward Lunge after a grip can take out the
Shadow Trooper in one shot. *See the "Lightsaber Tips" section for a
description of "Forward Lunge"* If he starts breaking the grip with push,
switch to short duration grips from close to striking distance. If you decide
to use speed, use it just after the grip to avoid him using speed to match.
When you're all done in here, take out the turret and go thru the door.
Hold fast in the doorway and block. Mind-tricking an FC-1 bearing Squad Leader
can speed things up considerably. Be careful though, using even a quick casting
force lets down your guard. Around the corner is another door that opens on a
large hangar. Save?
There's a Merr-Sonn packin' Squad Leader inside that may give you trouble.
(There are also plenty of other enemies.) So equip the Disruptor and move
slowly toward the door slightly right of center. When the door opens zoom in on
the Squad Leader on the left and at the far end of the room while charging a
shot. Let fly with a fully charged shot, then strafe clear of the door while
equipping the saber. Get to a corner and do your best to make it quiet.
Enter the room and finish the stragglers, then move over to the next door.
Clear this next room from the doorway if you can. (It's a bit wide.) Retreat to
the hangar if anyone gets by you. If you can mind-trick the guy with an FC-1,
he'll clear the room pronto. Turn left and go thru the right door into a
control room.
Press the switch on the right side of the console to uncover the lift in the
floor and power up the switch on the left. Press it to vent the hangar to space
and observe the result. Press it again to close the door, then go to the other
control room. Press the left switch to uncover the lift in the middle of the
hangar, then head for that lift. It will take you down to a very big tunnel.
*Behind the lift (at the bottom) is a Secret Area.*
Around the corner are two AT-XXs. Take them out with a saber dance and
lightning, or bait them onto the lift and run off and into the tunnel as it
starts up. Go about halfway down the hall and use speed. Run thru the big room
and get on the lift. Get off at the top facing the center of the room and let
the reflected auto-turret fire take out the STroopers who will appear. Move
left and jump up onto the ledge and then jump over the little booth with a
window. Use the turret fire to clear out this side, then enter the booth.
Press the switch and the middle door below will open. There are a couple Large
Shield Generators in one of the entry ways up here. Ride the lift down and get
quickly across the room and into the tunnel out of turret range. (You will have
to run past the dozing AT-XX to be safe from the auto-turrets.) Destroy the AT-
XX and move to the lift. Ride the lift up and kill the few guys at the top.
Another hangar.
Get to the door and kill the guys inside. Go into the control room and use the
panel like before to clear the next hangar of enemies. Make your way to the
door on the far side of the hangar you just emptied, and clear the familiar
looking L shaped room from the doorway. Make your way to the end of that room
and open the door there. Kill the STroopers and look around.
There are two Small Shield Generators in here. The other door in here is locked
but there's a grate above it. Jump up to the pipes and slash the grate. Inside
is a flimsy looking ceiling. Just inside the grate is a secret area, look up.
(Small Shield Generator, Seeker Drone, and Det-Paks.) You can safely walk
around and not be seen thru the grates in the ceiling. You can see thru the
grates but it's hard to make out much detail. You need to find a Squad Leader
who's carrying a Merr-Sonn PMS.
Make your way across the ceiling to the far end around a corner. If you look
lengthwise thru the third grate from the end, you should see a stationary Squad
Leader. Zoom in with the binocs to see that he has the Merr-Sonn. *The FC-1s
are easy to recognize, but the Repeaters and the Merr-Sonn look similar. Look
for the absence of the familiar green stock of the Repeater. The barrels are
also noticeably different when zoomed in.*
Take him out with fully charged Disruptor shot to the head. (Right thru the
grate.) As soon as you shoot, head back to the hole you came in thru, and go
back out onto the pipes. Toss a saber or thermal out to open a hole in the
ceiling and get things going. Let the STroopers and Officers thin out the ranks
with reflected fire from your saber-defense, then start looking for targets to
mind-trick.
When it gets real slow move in, drop down, clean up. Two of the Officers have
keys. One a Supply Key for the lock-box in here (Seeker Drone) and the other a
Security Key for the door. Thru the door is a lift, ride it down. Find the door
and enter the next room, and kill the Officer at the switch array. The hangar
across the way is where you're headed. Save?
Either door will lead you there. Both doors lead to the hangar, and you'll face
the same number and type of enemies on the way. The left door offers a slight
advantage when you get to the hangar. Go thru it, and kill the cloaked Shadow
Trooper at the end of the hall. Be careful not to open the door there while
fighting him, or you might have unexpected company.
>>>If you haven't tried adding speed to the deadly combo of grip and Forward
Lunge yet, now is a fine time to do so. Bind speed to a quick button if you
haven't already. (Push should be bound to the other quick button.) Select grip
and move up to within gripping distance. Grip this guy and as soon as he breaks
or you release the grip, hit speed and run to him. You have a lot of time, and
therefore a lot of choices. (In addition to giving you more time, force speed
also seems to increase the damage delivered by the saber.)
You can take him out in a single with the Forward Lunge or a strong style Top-
Down Hack. Or tear him to pieces with fast or medium style linked short
slashes. For a novel kill run to him with fast style selected, then turn around
to put him at your back. Press attack and pull back on the left stick to Stab
Backwards. Also an instant kill if it connects. See the "Lightsaber Tips"
section for more on "Forward Lunge" "Top-Down Hack" "linked short slashes".<<<
When you're done, go to the next door to open it, and clear the room from
there. Go thru the door at the far end into a small ante room. Behind the next
door is the hangar. Save?
There's a cloaked Shadow Trooper on the right side of the shuttle. And a
missile toting Squad Leader up on the walkway in front of the shuttle. There's
also some misc. enemies patrolling and stationary. Snipe the Squad Leader
behind the shuttle with a fully charged Disruptor shot to the head. Time it so
the STrooper patrolling behind the shuttle is moving away if you can.
Immediately equip the saber and select grip if not already selected. Stay in
front of and near enough the door to prevent the gun-toters from getting in.
When the Shadow Trooper starts thru the door, grip and then kill him. If he
gets in, avoid him and look for a chance to grip. Ignore the STroopers and
concentrate on the saber wielder. They will stop firing when he gets close. If
you score with the grip exploit it. *If you left shield generators behind you,
you can afford quite a lot of damage. If not, you can still afford a fifty-
shield loss.*
Next ease into the doorway just enough to snipe the Squad Leader up on the
walkway directly in front of the shuttle. Move into the room and mop up. Make
your way up to the open door at the end of the walkway and kill the Officer
there. (Ammo and Shield Power Converters.) Mind-trick the Officer behind the
glass, and when he unlocks the door go thru. One of the open cells has a weak
wall down low. Secret area. (Two Small Shield Generators.)
Find the locked cell door and open it for a reunion with Jan. Kill the Officer,
then leap frog the door switches with Jan to get back out of the cell block.
Backtrack now for whatever you need, then go to the door on the opposite end of
the walkway to end the level.

>choking him. He'll drop his weapon. (Even with just a short duration grip.)
>If you move while holding down the force button, he goes with you. (Includes
>jumping.)
Save? Go thru the door and kill the STroopers out there. One will run inside
for help, so don't go past the first door until it's been quiet for a bit.
There's a STrooper you can snipe at a window in the room out in the middle of
the big black hole. When it's been quiet a few seconds, head down to the last
door. Make your way slowly and check just inside the doors for stragglers. Go
thru the last door and start down the stairs. Wait for the AT-XX to walk by and
spot you.
Turn it to scrap with your saber, then go down the stairs. There's an auto-
turret on the ceiling just around the corner to the right. You can use your
saber to reflect its fire back at it. But it's quicker to use radius damage
from the DEMP gun secondary. *There are more AT-XXs in the long hall behind
you. You can destroy them now or just leave them.* When it explodes continue
around the corner and go up the stairs. Kill the STroopers guarding the door.
Save?
Lay a Det-pak in the middle of the landing between the two flights of stairs
for future use. (If you have one.) Saber throw the Officer from the doorway,
then enter and clear the room. One of the Officers has a Supply Key, and
there's a Shield Power Converter in here. (Save it for later.) Press the switch
in the corner and watch thru the window to see a bridge extend. Outside the
door at the bottom of the first flight of stairs, some imperials have arrived.
One Squad Leader likes to fire secondary FC-1. Use speed and select push. Run
out and push 'em down. Saber the one on the left first to be safe, then kill
the others. (Set off the explosives now. ;) Make your way to the bridge you
extended and jump up to the door. Press the switch, then go inside and get the
Security Key from the Officer. Note the hatches on the floor. Take the bridge
back to the 'mainland'. (Company will arrive on the way.)
Go thru the door directly ahead, and then thru the door just inside. Kill the
Squad Leaders and use the key. *If you didn't destroy the AT-XXs in the hall
before, and one of these guys leaves the room, you may face an AT-XX outside
the room.* Press the switch to open the hatches you saw. Enemies will come to
investigate the unauthorized switch pressing activity. Get back to the hatches
and drop thru the one to the left and farthest from the door. Follow the
tunnels to another hatch overhead. 'Push' it open, and jump up. Save?
Thru the door is a Reborn. (Hmm, must be heading into the cabin class section
of the ship.) Grip, speed, saber. Go thru the other door down here and kill
everyone inside. *Your saber may go thru the force fields here, but it's a
waste of time.* Ride the lift to a room just like this one, and clear it out.
(Supply Key.) Go out the door and onto the walkway. Thru the door ahead are two
Small Shield Generators. The walkway above is where you have to go. It is trip-
mined, but the short section at one end is clear.
Jump up and clear the mine blocking the long section. Jump over to the door and
go thru it. Break the window and drop down into the room below. Two of the
weaker variety of Reborn will ambush. Bounce them off the walls with grip and
the right stick. The doorway leads to a U-shaped hallway with Shield Power
Converter at one end. (Save it if you can.) Ride the lift you find up and
destroy the AT-XXs at the top. Save?
Go thru the door and down the short hall into the shield generator room. You'll
notice four power conduits surrounded by blue force fields around the perimeter
of the room. Destroy the junction boxes above them to lower the force fields.
Then destroy the exposed conduits themselves. When the last conduit goes,
Admiral Fyar will show.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bad Boy in a big blue bubble.
His bubble shield resists all attacks, but can be brought down temporarily by
repeated explosive rounds, or repeated saber hacks and/ or slashes. If you
touch it, you will be injured and thrown back. The shield emanates from a black
antenna behind his head. If you destroy it while the shields are down, it won't
reactivate. (This also damages him considerably.) While his shield is down, all
attacks will damage him. When it reactivates it will violently repulse anything
near it as it expands. (Including missiles and you.) His shields will take
longer to recharge every time they go down. By the third or fourth recharge,
you will plenty of time to make a kill.
While his shield is up, his attacks are Repeater primary for close and
secondary for far. When his shield is down temporarily, he adds a swipe with
his melee when very close. When the antenna has been destroyed, he will switch
to what looks like a narrow focused force lightning beam for his far attack.
You can use either the big black columns or the cone shaped remains of the
shield generator in the center of the room for cover while you fire explosives
to bring down his shield. I find the FC-1 secondary to my liking for his
shield. To use the saber to bring down his shield, let him to run to you and
stop. Between his Repeater volleys, swipe once with the saber. (The blue stance
has speed in it's favor, the medium has reach.) If his shield doesn't brighten
momentarily, you're too far away, move up a hair. (This is what usually happens
the first try.) If you are pushed away, you were too close, start over. Once
you find the spot, look straight down to see what it looks like. The next time
you should be able to get right to the magic spot. Two or three solid hits will
drop his shield. The timing is tight between the volleys, but you shouldn't be
hurt that much if you're off. (It's hard to pull off, but if you can be
slightly higher than him, one swipe can bring down his shield.) A deployed
seeker drone will stun him momentarily when it hits the top of the shield.
(You'll see the shield change.) If you're ready, it's a free swipe at the
shield.
As far as taking out his antenna goes, it can be hard to hit. The FC-1's
bouncing multiple shards stand a good chance. Or you can walk the Repeater's
primary into it. The Bowcaster secondary aimed a hair low. Or... All of these
should be attempted from behind him of course. What doesn't seem to work are
explosives. The antenna seems unaffected by radius damage. For the saber I had
the best luck with the medium and strong styles. (More time to adjust aim as
the move was executed.) Or a saber throw. Speed is in order no matter. I found
assault sentries ineffective, but seeker drones were a definite distraction.
Personally I find the antenna more trouble than it's worth. As long as the
rounds are hitting him, then nothing wasted I guess. But try not to get hit by
the expanding shield.
When his shields are down (permanently or not) he goes down relatively quick
with sustained heavy fire or saber attacks. All energy weapons will work, with
the FC-1 and Repeater seeming to have an edge. The E-11 is right up there,
though. For the saber fast style suits me, for sheer numbers of blows delivered
if no other reason. And a saber hit just as the shield starts to go up can
bring it back down immediately. (Much more likely with the fast style.) Either
method (gun or saber) should be executed from behind, and with speed. (Behind
is not as important for the guns.)
Speed should be selected. Your fav. gun should be bound to a quick button.
Second fav. gun or heal bound to the other.
Pure gun, pure saber, mix and match. Whatever you're comfortable with. I like
pure saber, but usually lose a few shield points. @Extra3.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the Admiral has met his Doom, the Rogues will begin to tear the ship
apart. The gravity will go and you'll be skating on thin air. You have to get
back to the hall where you destroyed the first AT-XX. You have plenty of time,
so take yours. (Kyle is over reacting.) Near the top of the room is a cubby
hole in the wall. Secret Area. (Seeker Drone, Small Shield Generator.) Cruise
on up and find it to get familiar with the control scheme. Note that crouch
takes you down. When you have been there, head for the door at the bottom.
Heal? Save?
There's a gas leak that's ignited. Move toward the door slowly and as you go
thru the door look up and press and hold forward. Crouch at the top to raise
your feet, then bring the cross-hair level the crouch should bring you down at
the wall. Go thru the door and turn right. Heal? Save?
Another gas leak. Past the flames is the elevator shaft. At the bottom are
electrical arcs. It's hard to avoid being hurt here. Get inside, stable, and
pointed toward the door. (But not pointed down.) Start down by tapping crouch,
then turn on speed near the bottom and bolt thru the door. Around the corner to
the right is the shield converter. Heal? Save?
Go thru the doorway into the room where you choked the two Reborn. You have to
go back thru the window up above. There are electrical arcs inside, but these
have a pattern. Get directly below the window and out a few feet from the wall.
Look straight up and tap forward. You want to rise to the window very slowly.
Look up and as the window come into view, watch the arcs for the dead spot.
Time it if you can to miss the electricity, but go thru fast. Hit speed right
_after_ you see the arcs stop, then go thru. Heal? Save?
Go thru the door and look around. There will be two attack droids buzzing
about. Get to a wall and let them try out your saber defense. (There were a
couple of small shields in the room here earlier.) Then drop to the bottom
slowly, looking for the open doorway. There's four more droids outside. If they
come in, take them out here. If not ease out into the hall and do it.
In the side rooms off this hall are two Small Shield Generators, and two lock-
boxes. (Assault Sentry, Seeker Drone.) Also lots of Ammo. Up the stairs in the
room with the switch for the bridge is the shield power converter you saved.
Use it if you need to. Find the stairway that's lit and go thru the door out
into the 'big black hole' room. More droids are waiting out here. You can avoid
them by hugging the wall and crouching. Turn right and go thru the second to
last door. At the bottom of the stairs, the grav-gens will come back online.
Head thru the door down the hall to meet up with Janners and end the level.

Give your eyes an hour to adjust to bright flat fog, then move to the edge of
the bushes and look around. There is a _tree with a curved trunk nearby_ to the
right, and Swamp Trooper beyond a rock in the water ahead and slightly left.
Kill or disarm him and head up the canyon. As you go keep an eye out for more
Swamp Troopers lurking in the water.
You'll come to a dam, with a small lake above it where a couple of Swamp
Troopers are swimming. Send them to the bottom, and drink in the scenery. The
canyon narrows and gets rocky ahead. A perfect spot for an ambush. Head around
the right side of the lake. Deep water. And then an opening to a very small
side 'room.' Not a bad place to fight if you prefer tight quarters. Now make
your way to the right side of the base of the big tree. Save?
Jump up onto the rock on the right. Turn to face back down the canyon and look
up. Two Shadow Troopers will drop down from near the tree if you move up the
canyon very far. (If they didn't just now.) Back up until they drop and run for
the little 'room' by the lake. They may only follow a short distance. Move out
until you can see them and one should head your way. You may have to bait him
to the 'room' by showing yourself. *Bait him further down the swamp if you want
more room to fight.* Kill him as you've killed the others before him. Grip,
speed, saber. *Try speed then grip if vice versa isn't working well. These guys
may need to be choked twice to get them to sheath their sabers. Tough necks.*
Bait the other one down or go to him. When he's dead, jump back up onto the
rock by the tree. Jump up just onto the next higher rock and locate the cloaked
Shadow Trooper at the end of the rock. Kill him, then drop down and move up
past two trees to another rock. @Option11. Jump up on the rock and look around.
From the rock you will see a STrooper in the water close and there's another
beyond a bush to the right of him. Kill them both, then turn left and move
around the edge of the pool. There'll be a two Small Shield Generators in the
grass near a tree (hard to see) and then you'll find some bacta. There's a
split in the wall just past the bacta. Jump up into the split and hold forward.
You'll slide into a hidden stash. (Large Shield Generator, and some Rockets.)
It can be a bit of a pain to get back out. (The entrance isn't the exit.)
Continue around the pool and enter the narrow canyon. Ease slowly up the left
wall when you reach the grass. A STrooper will attack with an E-11. Stop and
kill him. Strafe to the right side of the canyon and then move up 'till you can
see a Swamper in the water under a piece of debris leaning against the right
wall. There is another on a ledge above and to the left of him. He can be hard
to see. Disrupt them both and move up to the leaning debris. Snipe the STrooper
in the assault lander. @Extra4.
Then move up to where you can barely see the base of the bush just in front of
the tree to the left of the lander. He can be hard to find with the cross-hair.
If you can get a red cross-hair, blast him. Otherwise get him firing at you to
make him easy to find, then mind-trick him and quickly grip him as he
approaches. *You can kill Swampers with a gun if your under water. (Watch your
air.) You can grip them underwater also. Or drop an explosive device at their
feet. :)* To the left and above you, a little rock will be jutting out of the
canyon wall. It's kind of hard to make out. There's a Large Shield Generator up
there.
Move on past the lander and when a Swamper fires, move over close and kill or
disarm him. There's a tunnel under the little waterfall where he was, and a
Swamper in the pool on the other side of it. 'Best to snipe him from by the big
tree before he sees you. He can be hard to find, though. When he's dead, go
thru the tunnel if you haven't already, then find and kill the other Swamper in
this little section. Jump up onto the flat rock and look for the cave that
leads out of here. @Extra5.
Jump into the cave and then up to the next rock. Up the slope in a tight corner
a Secret Area will register. I found no item there. (There is a large shield
generator on other difficulty levels.) At the other end of the cave there will
be a framed head shot waiting to happen. Slide down and go to the opening in
the rock. Find the STrooper in the bush to the left with your cross-hair, then
snipe him. Find and snipe another in the bush between you and the big tree.
Equip the saber and move out of the opening but not into deep water.
There's a STrooper to the left. If he isn't trying to shoot himself, find and
snipe him. Now get across the lake and get your saber re-lit. If you aren't
being fired on, loose a fully charged Briar at the probe droid to wake it up,
then destroy it with lightning when it gets near enough. When it's peaceful
again, clear the area around the ruins. Down past the three columns are some
STroopers and a Shadow Trooper. There's no reason to go down there except for
the saber battle. @Extra6.
So head up the canyon, away from the three columns. There'll be a STrooper in
the grass, then a Swamper in a pond at some more columns. You'll go thru a hole
in the rock and come to the edge of a lake. Snipe the silhouetted Swamper on
the far side. Swim across hugging the right wall and ease around the corner.
Kill or disarm the Swamper playing fort, and also the two in the water just
past him. Avoid getting too close to the opening in the wall or a Shadow
Trooper may attack. There's nothing on down the canyon except a Swamper.
@Extra7.
So go thru the opening in the large block wall. The Shadow Trooper
should be waiting in the tunnel. He shouldn't be a problem in here. *You can
bait him outside, then run thru the tunnel if you don't want to fight.* At the
top of the ramp around the corner, there's a Shield Power Converter and Ammo.
Through the opening is the end of the level.

@Extra8. To your left will be a Swamper, to the right in the depths is a
secret. (Thermal Belt, Assault Sentry.) Deal with the Swamper then move up to
where he was standing. You'll see a rock dam you'll be jumping to. When you
land on the dam, a skirmish will soon break out between a few Swampers and a
lone Rebel guard a short ways ahead. The guard will almost certainly die
without your help. Hero or avenger, your choice. If it's hero, use speed and
get moving. Save?
Hero: The Barney is standing on a bridge around the corner to the right from
the rock dam. The easiest way is to just get to a spot near him and draw fire
while he shoots. You can grip or mind trick to speed things along. Mind
tricking them may confuse the Barney, though. And as always, using force while
under heavy fire is risky. If you run down the right side of the canyon and
jump from the shallow water just past the last rock, you can make it across the
without losing your saber. You can also just speed thru the deep water and
quickly re-light your saber when it's out of the water again. (The saber will
stay lit if you swing it, but of course you won't be blocking.) This guy may
want to follow you if he can see no enemies. You can trap him by the bridge.
Avenger: Make the jump to the rock dam and ignore the noise when it starts.
Move up past the first tree while hugging the left wall. You'll come to a
little beach, move up on it and get to the canyon wall. Back up as far as you
can. From this vantage point, you should be able to target two or three
Swampers with the Disruptor. One to the left of the fallen column and big tree,
and one or two more to the right of them. (If there's two to the right one may
fire, but inaccurately.) Strafe right after that to snipe one more to the left
of the tree.
Make your way onto the fallen column up ahead, and move to the end. To the left,
in between two brown fallen columns you'll see the head of a Swamper to shoot or
grip. (Save your Disruptor ammo.) Saber time. Drop just off the end of the
column down onto a rock. Continue to face where you killed the last one, and
strafe right until another one fires. Kill or disarm him, then turn right and
head down the canyon. You'll come to a portable bridge where the guard made his
valiant stand.
*There is another Swamper guarding some rocket ammo up a dead end behind the
brown fallen columns.* Save? Make your way from the bridge to just short of a
palm tree where the canyon narrows. You'll hear the sounds of another skirmish.
Hero: There are two Rebel guards taking on a two Swampers. They sometimes both
make it but one usually dies. If you want to make a difference, you need to get
there quick (speed.) Take the left bridge and either quickly kill or grip the
two attackers, or get them to see you and shift their fire. Check out the area,
then go back to the V bridges.
Avenger: Snipe the Swamper you can see from the palm tree. Then move up to the
two bridges forming a V. They lead to the ends of a circular canyon. Make a
loop and end up back here. (Shield and Ammo Power Converters.) Kill any
Swampers left standing.
Look left of the circular canyon to see a third canyon entrance. Head into it
staying on the right edge to avoid dousing your saber. At the end of the
bridge, deal with a Swamper in the water. There's another in the water behind
the end of the sloping rock out-cropping to the right. Jump over to the slope
and move up to take care of him. Over in the corner is a somewhat hidden
entrance to the last section of this canyon. Save? Jump over to it. The sound
of battle will soon be heard.
Hero: Hit speed and start running as soon as you hit the ground. You'll want
the DEMP gun or the Merr-Sonn handy. Get a bead on the AT-ST and take it out
quick. As soon as it goes down, switch to the saber and get the attention of
the STroopers and Squad Leader that hang with it. If the guards are still alive
now, they will probably all make it. When it's quiet, backtrack for ammo and
shields, then come back here. (Don't forget the Swamper that you passed.) ***If
this doesn't save all four guards, try running past the AT when you get here.
Run toward the lander and hug the right wall after you get by the AT. There is
a big hole there that is safe.
Let the guards take out the enemies they can see, while you bide your time.
Ease out until you can get a bead on the AT, taking out any STroopers or Squad
Leaders that you need to. Take it slow and locate it with the third person cam
first. If there aren't many ground troops left, you can find the distance where
a saber throw tears at it and dance around it till it drops.*** Both methods
seem to depend on luck at least a little for all four guards to survive. I had
the best with the second one.
Avenger: As you pass thru the narrow opening look up to the right. The top of
the rock leads to another way in. There's a Small Shield Generator and rocket
Ammo up there. Also a head shot on an unsuspecting Swamper. Wait for the din of
the battle to subside, then head up the canyon hugging the left wall. As you
leave the shallow water, the AT-ST that pounded the Rebel defenders should come
into view. *The end the level is around the next corner to the right. You can
just run past everything and into the assault lander.*
The DEMP gun will drop the AT very quickly, as will the Merr-Sonn. There are
two S-Troopers and two Squad Leaders that hang with the AT that may also need
to be killed. (Unlike Swampers these guys will pick up a weapon in a heart beat
after being disarmed.) The assault lander should be in view, if not it's just
around the corner. There will be few more STroopers to kill between it and you.
Enter the assault lander to end the level.

~~~~~~~~
There's an empty ST ahead, all gassed up and with your name on it. *The AT is a
mini game in itself, there are tactics I guess but success hinges in large part
on mastering its sluggish handling. (Armor comes at a price.) This walkthrough
goes on foot.* There is a Secret area in the upper area of the assault lander
behind you. (All kinds of stuff, check it out.)
Move past the mech and look down the canyon. There's a ledge with the first
kill standing on it. Warm up your sniping eye on this guy, but save the
Disruptor ammo. Then move down close to the lower ledge near where he used to
be, and wait for the STroopers to come. Kill them in any number of ways, then
jump up onto the lower ledge. Jump up to the higher ledge and get to the
farthest edge down the canyon. Put your back against the wall.
You'll be looking down a leg of the river. Above where it makes the next bend,
you can make out a couple of rock ledges like the one you're on. There are two
Squad Leaders with Merr-Sonns over there. One on the ledge at your level, and
another above him and to the left. Save? Zoom in with the Disruptor and find
them, then snipe the higher one. 'Unzoom' quickly and strafe left if the lower
one has noticed and fires. *If the second one fires, load the last save or ease
around the edge of the canyon until you can just target his upper body and he
is unable to fire.* He usually doesn't so snipe him.
Head over to where they were. *On the way you'll pass a cave on the right.
(Thermals, Det-Paks, Trip-Mines.)* Look down stream and snipe the Swamper in
the water down by the broken wall. Now head to the wall staying on the left
side of the canyon. You may take a little laser cannon fire as you approach,
but it will be aimed at where you were. Get to the side of the canyon and jump
up onto the lower ledge of the wall. And then up to the large top ledge. You'll
be taking fire from one or two laser cannons. Get behind the buttress and up
against it, then tap-strafe back out until the right one starts firing.
Get a red cross-hair while the saber blocks and then tap strafe slowly back
until it stops. (You may want to slow down the sensitivity for this.) Save?
Switch to the Briar and quickly back to the saber. If the gun fires, strafe
left a hair more. Get a red cross-hair around the corner and fire off four or
five primary rounds. Try the secondary if he doesn't die, or the E-11 primary.
Do the same for the other cannon, then move up about three feet around the
corner of the buttress.
Locate a rounded ledge to the left and a ways above you. Zoom in with the
Disruptor and zap the Squad Leader up there. (Crank the sensitivity back up
now.) Equip the Merr-Sonn and move up toward the edge of the wall until you can
get a solid shot at the ST zoning below. Fire three quick primary shots, then
strafe out of the way. ***There is a Shadow Trooper over between the turbo
lasers if you want him. Grip, speed, saber. On top near the laser cannons there
is Disruptor ammo and some rockets. To the right of the wall is a cave with a
couple Large Shield Generators and more rockets. You can get to it all without
fighting him, though.***
Drop down off the wall and head toward the left end of the wall the turbo
lasers are on. You can jump up to where the Squad Leader was from near there
and enter a cave. Secret area. (Assault Sentry, Large Shield Generator.)
@Extra9. There is a live assault sentry in there also. You can use the ledges
in the cave to drop down to some batteries. Then climb back up, or follow the
lower cave to some debris and get out.
Follow the canyon around to some columns and deal with the lone Swamper. Walk
by the column laying in the stream about to its middle. Kill the STroopers who
come running, and get ready to run a gauntlet. Select speed and build full
force if you need to. Then head down the canyon, and hit speed when you see the
first cannon fire. Stay on the right side until close to the AT, then make for
the middle of the viney wall where it's broken. Hit speed again when it runs
out.
You'll need to get into the cubby hole to the left when you get to the rock
face behind the wall. Go _all the way_ into the hole and then turn around to
face the turbo laser up on the wall. Back as far into the hole as you can. The
AT may fire a rocket but the wall should protect you from damage. Select mind-
trick and target the guy on the laser cannon. Mind-trick him repeatedly until
he cannot find a target, then snipe him while he's in a stupor. Select grip and
ease out into the canyon.
He should have cleared the place except for a Shadow Trooper. He is usually
near the laser cannon up the canyon. There are also two Small Shield Generators
by that cannon. Jump over the wall to end the level. *You can also just run the
gauntlet and jump to the end of the level. You will only be able to use speed
once. You'll need to make two efficient jumps from the far right side of the
canyon, or you'll run out of force.* @Extra10

Leave the Shield Power Converter if you're less than fifty. Save? Get next to
the dark wall and jump clear over the huge rock shard. (Another unattended ST
with the key in the ignition.) Turn left in the air to stay close to the wall,
and hit the ground running. Follow the wall to the other side of the canyon.
Use the special looking rocks that make your saber growl to climb up to a cave
entrance above.
Follow the cave, stopping when you see the glow of bacta. (Two Large Shield
Generators, Rockets.) There is a PMS packing Squad Leader around the corner,
but you'll be safe if you run to the front of the stuff. Snipe the Squad Leader
or something, then take what you can. Move up to the mouth of the cave. Outside
to the right are a couple of laser cannons on towers. Mind-trick the jockey of
one into killing the other, then snipe the survivor. There's an AT between the
two towers you can rocket or leave. Save?
Drop off the other side of the ledge down to sloped the canyon wall. Heal.
Enter the cave on the other side and follow it 'till a laser cannon fires.
Mind-trick the gunner and he'll soon be killed by his buddies. Ease out and
mind trick the one to the left of the first. When he finishes firing to your
right and starts firing above you, kill him.
Move out of the cave and look right. You'll see an AT by the tower. Take it
from here with the Merr-Sonn. (Or wait and saber throw it in a second. Face the
cave and back into the canyon while looking up. There's a Squad Leader you need
to kill on the square looking rock above. It's the left most light colored rock
up there. When he lays at your feet, move over to the tower and take out the AT
if you didn't before. *There are two more rocket Squad Leaders up on a ledge
near where the first one was, but on the other side of the rock bridge. They
aren't a threat unless you go up the canyon.* @Extra11.
Go thru the assault lander and cross the lake. At the head of the canyon is a
cave up in the rocks. There's a Shadow Trooper just inside. Bait him out with a
saber throw from the rock below the entrance, then kill or jump past him and
enter. Drop down the hole in the cave to end the level. *Remember to fill up on
shields before you go.*

Yavin Courtyard. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
~~~~~~~~~
You've dropped into a room with three STroopers, kill them and grab ammo if you
need it. The tunnel leads to a familiar room. The Basement of the Temple.
Priority one in this level is Kyle stays healthy. Saving the good guys is down
the list a ways. (Possible though.) Use speed and select lighting and jump into
the tunnel. Run thru the depression, and to the left side of the hole where
four enemies are attacking the guards inside. _Stop short of the unbroken
floor_ and use lightning on the three you can reach. The fourth will probably
turn and fire, but will soon fall.
You may have noticed three Squad Leaders enter the bay at the far end. Let your
force charge to max then move thru hole just into the bay. When the three come
down to fight, one or two should be targeting you. Just block for the most part
and try to avoid putting any guards between you and them. If it gets down to
Squad Leaders just firing at guards, run up and use lightning. (Don't move out
more than about half way to the next set of pillars.) *If you are trying to
save all the guards and there are less than three, load the last save.* Save?
Let your force recharge, then head for the right side of the stack of crates
past the elevator. Hit speed about halfway to the first pillar, and tap the
force button (lightning) as you get close to the Squad Leader. Finish with the
saber as you reach him. Wait for the speed to wear off if it hasn't, then
continue on around the crates. Aim for the hole by the pillar.
Two Squad Leaders will come thru. Use the pillar to prevent the second one from
aiming at you. When your force meter gets back up to half, run around the right
side of the pillar. (Watch out for the rubble on the floor.) Use lighting as
soon as you see one. Get close enough for it to kill both if you can, but be
sure to get the one with a Merr-Sonn. (Second one.) Move _into_ the hole in the
wall and turn around. Back into the room until you can make out two heads up
above.
Mind-trick the left guy and wait for him finish. Put him out of his shameful
misery, then jump up into the little hole to your left. Turn around and aim at
the far corner of the room, then press only the jump button. (Wheeee, hee hee,
hmm...) Jump on up to the top and then up to the next ledge. Stand in the
opening until the seeker is the only thing firing. Go into the room and get a
feel for the timing, then show the seeker who's boss. (Saber throws seem almost
'homing.') Thru the door are a student and his trainer. Save.
They will soon be attacked by a Shadow Trooper and a half dozen Reborn or so.
Stay at the edge of the fray, helping out when you can. Lightning is hard to
beat. It can drain your force down fast though. (Swallow the green pill as soon
as you see it, and lean on the lightning button again immediately.) Take a
swipe with the saber when you get a chance if you want. When it thins out,
switch to grip and watch out for the Shadow if he's alive.
At this time it's a good idea to get close to your compadres if you're not. The
kid usually makes it, and sometimes both. When it's quiet, mind-trick and kill
the Squad Leader above, or walk your saber into him. Save? *This room and the
next are good places to polish up on your saber skills. Reload and practice
linked short slashing in medium and fast styles up close and personal. (Or your
fav. moves.) Practice with and without speed. See the "Lightsaber Tips" section
for more on "linked short slashes."*
There are a couple of Seeker Drones in a doorway up here to pick up. Follow the
hall to a door and run thru. There is another saber battle raging below.
@Option12. Find the hole in the glass and drop down and do it again. These two
light-siders will stick with you when the room's clear, so it's nice if they
survive. @Option13.
Check out the narrow cave-like dogleg hallway leading to a locked door. Looks
like a good place to funnel your foes. It is in fact an excellent place to
fight from alone. *Depending on how much you been able to help your allies, if
they're with you at all they will be getting weak. If there are two left and
you want to leave them alive, the best bet is to trap them in the glass
hallways behind you. You should go back and stock up on seekers if you can and
need to, anyway.*
Move out of the room thru a short passage way that leads to the elevators. Move
toward the elevators until a Shadow Trooper drops down, then help your allies
out with grip or lightning. *If you are alone, grip, speed saber.* Move past
the elevators a bit and some Reborn will attack from around the corner.
Lightning if you are helping out, retreat to the dogleg if you're alone.
@Option14.
Head past the elevators and down the hall toward the open courtyard. Out in the
courtyard are more Shadows and Reborn. (There's a Large Shield Generator on one
side out here.) Help your allies if you brought them for as long as they hold
out, then retreat to the room with the push blocks. Fight what's left of your
enemies one by one from the door in the narrow dogleg hall. Grip, speed, saber.
On the far side of the courtyard are the passage and door to a final outside
area where Desann will drop into the lower temple. He'll leave two Shadows to
dissuade you from following. Their deaths are the key to the stairs. The dogleg
hall back in the push block room is the safest place to fight them, but the
side rooms here can also be used to your advantage. Go near the stairs after
'obtaining the key.' And you will push them open. Drop down to end the level.

Like Yavin Trial you will be on a quest for a saber. This one in the hands of a
scum bag squeeze-napper however. Break the rocks blocking the way with your
saber. Turn to the right and run thru a room where the sky seems to be falling.
Jump up onto the ledge and run into the tunnel. Stare at the wall to the left
until you know what to do. Save? At the top of the ramp is a gauntlet of fire,
run thru if you're a master of platform timing. If not, push will put out the
first two torches permanently, and the second two for a short time. 'Might want
to use speed after the third push.
You'll then come to a room with three Desanns, and three ways to go. The false
wall to the right is deadly. The center leads only to illusion. *Or maybe not,
a seeker released there attacks.* The left it is then. Around the first corner
you'll spot a leaky pipe. Leak = weak. There's a fire in your way just ahead.
Once the flames are doused, run to and drop down the hole beyond.
Push the block with a sign on it in front of you to open a short passage way.
Run in, turn left and push the knee high sign/ switch to open another passage
way back where you dropped in. Avoid being crushed by the moving blocks. Speed
can help but if it runs at the wrong moment, it may get you killed. Use it on
the last moving block though. Save when you get past them all. Desann is just
ahead thru the short tunnel.
*He's quite the Jedi and you should try to experience all of his attacks before
trying to beat him. His lightning and grip are outrageous. He's fast and his
saber packs a wallop. He will laugh at most of your force attacks. He will
sometimes grip and then send you around the room like a pinball. He has a
thick, tough lizard leather hide that makes cortosis seem weak. I've seen
people write on the net that he's too easy to beat. Perhaps for some, but on
Jedi Master I found him plenty formidable.* Select speed, bind heal (or bacta)
and push to buttons, then move on in.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Lizard Lord
After the cut scene ends, you'll have a few seconds before he attacks, so use
the free time to fire up the beam you saw earlier in the center of the room.
The switches on the sides of the room (upper level) need to be pulled out, be
sure be centered on them and aim in the middle. The beam will light shortly but
just for a while, so drop down and jump thru it. (Try not to over jump and use
a lot of force.) Use speed and find him. (Start counting to yourself when you
hit speed.)
You will be invulnerable for just more than two continuous uses of force speed.
(Avoid force jumping to save force for a quick second use of speed while
invulnerable.) Get to him (in his face) and short slash with medium or fast
style. (See the "Lightsaber Tips" section near top for more on linked short
slashes.) *Any moves will work, but these work fairly quickly and are easy to
do.* When speed runs out (note how high you counted,) use it again as soon as
you have enough force, and start counting again. Get in a few licks if you can,
but get out and headed up top before the speed runs out. Keep an eye on him as
much as possible and use the top walkway to avoid him until the beam glows
again. *Heal if you need to.*
Drop down and wait just a bit if he is still up top, to maximize the time you
have to attack. Then jump thru and hurt him again. Save whenever you get in a
few licks and make it back to the top successfully. (Sometimes he will be in a
force mood and you might want to just to try and get away as soon as possible.)
You can try force push to break his grips, but... Persist, and you will
persevere. @Option15.

Glitches: I managed to get hopelessly stuck a in corner of the room at the top
of the bug ridden tunnels in Artus Detention. Same thing between a light-post
and a sloped corner in one of the rooms in Cairn Dock. And many places off the
beaten track in the later Yavin levels.
In the later levels the walls and floors absorbed mind-trick force.
In some levels Kyle took no damage from falling. The first one I noticed was
Cairn Bay. Weeee. The controller vibrated but the meter showed no hit.
The right stick would sometimes act as a jump button after loading a save.
(Upon release.) as soon as I pressed the A button to jump the stick would
revert to normal (crouch.) I would have liked this as a controller option.
Grip would work over extremely long distances in Yavin Swamp sometimes. Almost
always immediately lethal.
Tavion's Saber was about a foot long one time. She was very ineffective with it
to say the least. It was a 'saveable' situation. (One of my fav. saves.)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
@Jan dies. If Jan keeps dying, or you'd rather she not help, you may want to
corral her. After she kills the Storm Trooper and the Officer, lead her around
the back of the shuttle to the drums you climbed before. Push in into the V
formed by the drums. Then, staying as close to her as you can, go back under
the shuttle to the other side of the drums. Save?
Climb up onto the ledge again and follow the normal walkthrough above. (Snipe
the patrolling Storm Trooper and run to the far side of the pad the Turbo Laser
is on.) Hug the rock wall when you move to the corner to survey the scene
though, or she may run around the back of the shuttle. Instead of Jan killing
the STroopers while you draw their attention, you'll kill them yourself.
Jump up to bait them over to the edge just above you if need be. (Careful to
get back close to the wall after you jump.) If that doesn't bring them in, move
up the hump to expose yourself, then quickly get back to safety. Be patient, it
may take a few seconds for them to decide where to go.
You can carefully back away from the wall (or strafe right) and head shoot the
ones that come to the spot directly above you. They will sometimes line up to
fill that spot, and other times will need to be baited by showing yourself.
They may also end up at a spot just to the right of the big gun. Ease up the
hump to get a shot at them there.
If they end up all bunched up far to the right, move down to the corner of the
pad and use it for cover to snipe around. Or load the last save. When the last
one (usually on the balcony) is dead, Jan _will_ find a way to get to, and
shoot the door. *She may show up at any time, but usually stays corralled until
they're all dead.*
@Option1.
>This was the original tactic, but I decided it was more trouble than it's
>worth. It's kind of cool to snipe these guys, though. I couldn't help
>wondering why the dev. team put this grate here.
Run back out the entrance door as Jan runs in. Drop down and go into the little
tunnel again. Turn right and go to the switch you pressed earlier. Walk down
the stairs about halfway. Look up at the ceiling and notice the explosive crate
sitting over a hole. You should also see a Storm Trooper. Charge up the Briar
and take him out clean. Wait for a second or two. Another STrooper should run
across your view. Wait a few more seconds for him to either stabilize or run
back.
If he stays, move back up the stairs and line up a shot. Take him out clean as
well. (Winging one of these guys will make things harder.) If he runs back you
may have to set up a shot at the top of a jump. The third (and last) one isn't
too bad once you find the spot. *On the little ledge around the circular part
of this room.* If he bolts because you hit the explosive crate, check the other
grate. You can't destroy it, but you can shoot thru it.
If something goes wrong, load the last save and try it again. If that doesn't
work, move on. *You can actually skip this part, but it does make the next
phase a little easier.* Head back up to the control room, and press switches 3
and 4.
@Option2. You can also just run straight to the kitchen and use push to get
into the secret area, and fight from there. It plays a little more consistent
this way, but you don't take advantage of the pit. And you will probably have
to deal with the two Gran bombers at the same time.
@Option3. An alternate method. After killing the Weequay and two Gran in the
piston room, you can just run clear to the room with the Ugnaught. It is better
to use the stairs and door to the right to get there. (The enemies from the
stairs room will tend to come into the Ugnaught room thru the door you used.)
You'll want to end up at a spot behind the bullet proof glass and right next
the console where an Ugnaught is working. (A relatively safe position.) If you
hit speed just after you leave the room with the piston, it should carry you
almost to the Ugnaught. Select push after you use speed and use it on the two
guys at the top of the stairs as you approach the door to the Ugnaught room.
Once you're behind the glass, face the door you didn't come thru just in case,
and wait for everyone to settle down. The enemy prefers certain spots in this
room. One is close to the small opening to the right of the console, and
another at the far end of the room in line with the first spot. The Disruptor
zoomed works well. *You may have to move just a bit to see them.*
In front of the glass on the left side of the room is also popular. Mind trick
followed by quickly strafing out with Bowcaster and delivering a secondary fire
to the head works well here. If two are close there, mind-trick both to be
safe. You may have to leave the booth briefly to bait stragglers. The downside
here is the Ugnaught sometimes dies. The next door you go thru will be a one-
way door in this case. Meaning no access later to the shield converter and
generators behind you. (You can pull and push the generators past the door and
have access to them, but not the converter.) Your call.
You don't have to kill any of these guys, actually. You can just press the
switch and speed past them and thru the furnace room. It's actually a lot
easier, but you'll play hell getting back to the shield converter later if you
need it. There is another shield converter before the end of the level, as well
as seventy-five points worth of shield generators. Again, your call.
@Option4. *This can make things a bit easier later on in this level.* Move over
by the elevator and use the Disruptor or binocs to locate the Reborn with
bright embroidery on his outfit. He also has a dark blue diamond on the top of
his hood. If he's away from the other one, lob a shot at him with the Repeater
secondary. Adjust your aim and when he starts jumping, fire three or four
rounds 'for effect.' Repeat 'till he lays down his saber. Do this before you
pick up the Repeater ammo.
@Option5. For a saber kill I'd suggest pull, followed by Top Down Hacks when
he's down. Try to get him down with a pull as the door opens and he's dropping
to the floor to start things off on the right foot. (And finish if your lucky.)
*Many people seem to like speed, though.* The two gun-toters will try to get
out the door when they see you. And while they won't fire during a saber
battle, as soon as you stray far from the Reborn they will figure it's over and
open up. If your back happens to be close to the FC-1, it can really hurt.
@Option6. For a gun kill here it's the FC-1 and push, speed, or pull. Fight him
outside rather than in. For saber I'd say push or pull followed by Top Down
Hacks while he's down. Start inside and move out if it get's too intense.
*Again, many people seem to like speed, though. If he throws his saber you'll
have him.*
If you want a tougher than normal fight with Tavion, bait him to the door that
leads to her. He will be there after the cut scene, and you can battle both at
the same time. :]
@Option7. For a 'too easy' win you should jump up onto the larger of the two
fancy crates to the right of the hauler ship right away. If she doesn't jump
onto the ship after she starts moving, load the last save. If she does, quickly
aim at her and then pull back on the left stick. Aim almost as high as you can.
Did I mention force pull? She'll jump over and try to land on your head. As she
comes down, adjust your aim to target her, and pull just before she lands. If
your aim and timing are right, it'll be over. *Push will also work, and is
easier to aim but I had the best luck with pull.*
For a gun 'kill' on her try the FC-1, speed or pull, and a seeker. As with the
saber, you need to release the drone before she targets you. And avoid her
until she zones on the drone. Then try to get and stay behind her while firing
at her feet when using speed. (Try to avoid hitting the drone.) Or hit her with
force pull and flechettes from behind when she focuses on the seeker. If the
pull takes her down, move in a bit and try to finish her while she's down.
These _can_ both work well. *By "behind" I only mean more than ninety degrees
left or right of front center.*
I'll also mention that you don't have to fight her outside. The door is open,
so you can bait her to anywhere in the level. It's a different fight in close
quarters. She can be hard to get to the second floor though, she has trouble
with the elevator shaft. In fact she will usually break her leg sooner or later
just jumping around in there if you stand at the edge of the opening above it.
(Another 'too easy' win.) *If you ditch her first you can rest up inside also.
If you killed the Reborn guarding the shield converter, you can go to it for a
boost if any is left. (Grab the shield generator near the famous droids first
if it's still there and it's prudent.)*
@Option8. For a novel gun kill: After the first Reborn collapses from the grip,
run to the right and make a lap around the assault lander. Run to the door,
open it and run inside. As soon as you're inside jump up onto the lift and
enter the room above. Get to one side of the lift opening and wait a second or
two. If it's safe, save. Then move onto the lift and back off to send it down
without you going with it.
If it get's stuck, you know where he is. If it doesn't, use the third person
camera to see if he made it inside. *If he's still outside, drop down and go to
the door. Open it then back up to the wall. When he starts in, jump up into the
room above.* If he's under the lift, equip the Bowcaster or FC-1. *The
Bowcaster is a little safer, but the ammo is scarce and you may go thru some.
The FC-1 is a little harder to aim, but works well. You've saved so, try both?*
If he's under the lift, when it goes down and stops, bounce three or four
Bowcaster secondaries or FC-1 primaries down toward him. If he comes out from
under the lift strafe off to the side. If he doesn't, repeat until he screams.
If he's isn't under the lift, usually he's on one side of the lift or the
other, close to the wall and jumping once in awhile. If so, back into the room a
bit and equip the FC-1.
Aim to bounce orange balls in his general vicinity, and fire a couple times.
Wait for all the rounds to explode. Move you point of aim slightly if he didn't
scream. Repeat 'till he goes down. *The Repeater secondary can also work when
he's on the sides. It's best if you can see his sword as he's jumping, and time
a shot into the corner when he's at the same level as the explosion.*
If you see him anywhere other than the three places mentioned during this, move
back away from the lift and to one side of the room. Then ease back out and
find him again.
@Option9. This is a very hard method of _not_ killing this guy. Select speed
and get to the lift. Be sure to just nick him with the saber on the way. (Count
a little coup.) Press the switch and then get behind the lock-box. When the
lift gets to the top, watch it. As soon as the lift leaves, run to it and drop
off the edge to land on it, then drop off it and down to the floor. Leaving him
the choice of death or the shame of the coup. This can be tough to pull off, if
the lift is close to the top he may drop down to it and follow you. If it's too
far down, you'll die. Heal.
@Option10. If you want to kill the two Reborn use speed and select push or
grip, then open the door and quickly kill the Officers. If you are fast and
lucky you can get back thru the door before it closes. Use push or grip to try
and keep them out until the door closes. (Which may kill them if they are in
the doorway.) Then rebuild your force, open the door and fight one at a time.
The blue hooded one can be choked to death.
@Option11. If you want to take on all three Shadow Troopers at once here, I
recommend trying the little hole (just big enough to get in) in the left wall
as you stand on the rock facing the third (cloaked) Shadow. Once you know where
the hole is, it's easy to get into it and turned around before they have a
chance to attack. By making like a moray eel, you can quickly leave three
shadows lying face down in a tight little group. Grip, speed, forward lunge.
You can retire to the cave after each one, or grab the pill and turn to face
the next one.
You can also just run past all three Shadows. Use speed and jump over the third
one as he's dropping to the rock. You should go clear over the first tree. Jump
up on to the rock past the second tree, then turn left and run along the wall.
You usually won't be followed past the rock. If you are followed it will be by
just the third one.
@Option12. You can just run from here to the area with the stairs. You will
still have to kill the two Shadows who guard the stairway, however. And you
won't be able to use the dogleg. The side rooms there aren't bad to fight from,
though.
@Option13. You can get the two Jedi in the first room to help the rest of the
way also, but it isn't easy. First you must pull them up into the glass
hallway. From there you push and pull them to the next room and get them down.
Then get them to the exit. They will usually start fighting from there, when
the Shadow drops down. Keep them close to the action and they will pitch in.
*You can also grip them and they will follow you, but they (you?) will have
slipped to the dark side.*
@Option14. If you jump up near the elevators just past the push block room, you
can get to Luke's 'private space.' (Where you met with him before.) There are
four Shadow Troopers up there conspiring to despoil the walls with lightsaber
graffiti. Luke's your bud, so... *Try baiting as many as you can to the dogleg
at first. Then when the first bunch is gone, head back up. If you run into more
than one on the way retreat. If just one, grip, speed, saber.*
@Option15. For a gun kill, the FC-1 with speed or pull can work. It's not
nearly as dependable as the saber and the beam though. If you have a seeker or
two it can be much easier. Pop a seeker up top near the edge, and wait for him
to target it. Hit speed, move down the edge a ways, then drop down and wait for
a saber throw. When he throws (at the seeker) rush him and hold down the
primary. He will probably try to swing the throw around and catch you with it.
Alternate between crouch and stand, or strafe to avoid being hit. If he starts
chasing you, it's probably over. (There is a "magic" distance where you can hit
him with most of the fletchette spread, but not divert his attention from the
seeker. Try to hit him from behind or the side, to minimize his saber
blocking.)
If he targets the drone and throws, this can work very quickly. Sometimes he
just won't go down. If he doesn't go down or pulls your weapon away, you can
always wuss out on the gun kill. ;] Switch to your saber and try to get up top.
Then switch to the saber method. (Beam, speed, saber, escape, save.)
@Extra1. (What follows is a major short-cut thru the first part of this level.
(Thanks to Leeboblue.) Many of the enemies will be by-passed.) Turn right as
soon as you enter the compactor room. Hug the wall, and move down to the next
door. Jump up onto the the teensy ledge formed by the little square just to the
right of the door. (Use the same method described for jumping onto the panel
near the R-5, near the end of "Nar Shaddaa Streets.")
From the square, jump up onto the light above, and from there up to the crate.
Look toward the center of the room. Off to the left will be the closest Gran
Bomber patrolling in and out of view on the catwalks. Save? Snipe him with the
disruptor. (Tough shot.) Farther to the left, near the closest corner another
Gran will patrol in and out of view. Snipe him also (try to catch him as he
turns around.)
Now jump up onto the crate in the corner (you'll have to crouch after jumping
to get in there.) Look down the wall toward the far end of the room. Snipe the
Gran patrolling down there, and then drop of the crate by moving in his
direction. Jump up onto the catwalk, and move to where it turns. Find and snipe
the two Gran at the far end (or rush them.) Go back to the door near where you
jumped up to the catwalk, and go thru it.
Destroy the grate around the corner, and jump into the duct. (Follow the
walkthrough from here, but don't go past the corner at the lower end of the
hall after you leave the duct, unless you want to face more enemies than you
have to. If you want the second and third secrets, grab them on the way to
Lando. Be aware you will trigger the door guards by going thru the doors.)
@Extra2. (What follows is a major short-cut thru this level. No secret, no
goodies, but the easiest route by far.) You'll see a STrooper way off and above
you. Zoom in and vaporize him. To your right is a huge structure. The
Doomgiver. There's a very large fuel nozzle connecting the ship to the building
below. Make your way over to where it meets the ship. *You may be seen while
making the next few jumps. Load the last save and try again, if they _fire_.*
Jump on the nozzle and crouch. Jump up onto the ship and crouch again. Move up
the slope to a narrow ledge. Up above a bridge rests on an opening in the ship.
Save? Jump up into the opening. There's a Squad Leader patrolling up here, he
won't see unless you jump up onto the bridge. Turn around and look down the
ship. You'll see a slope at about the same level as you. Jump to it and move to
the top. Follow the ledge around the end of the ship and to a dark wall. Jump
to the top of it, and from there up onto the ship. Make your way over to the
ship's bridge (windows) and jump up. There's a locked door on one side and the
end of the level on the other. Doomgiver ride ahead.
***There is a way to get the secret without fighting the Reborn from up here.
The secret isn't particularly grand (Thermals and a Bacta) but it is a secret
and there's a possibly interesting glitch. WARNING!!! Possible danger to your
'suspension of disbelief' or 'immersion.' From the locked door on the ship's
bridge, follow the catwalk to a door. Ride the lift down and make your way thru
or over the boxes to the door. Open it but don't go in.
Go back to the lift and ride it up. Follow the catwalk back to the ship's
bridge. Drop down to the top of the dark wall you used to get up here, and the
make your way over to the roof with stacks of boxes. Go to the side of the
building without boxes this time and use the ledges to drop down. (Where you
would normally enter the building with a light switch and power bot.) Grab the
secret if you want then go thru the two doors here to enter the empty room.
Make your way to the door on the other side of the room. Go thru it and the
next. Hee hee :) You know the way to the end of the level.***
@Extra3. There is a way to glitch Fyar. I only mention it for the giggle
factor. You will need at least one seeker to pull it off. Let the seeker go
over by one of the black columns, then hide from Fyar by watching for his
bubble. You'll need to not be seen by him. After awhile he should fail to
appear. Use the third person cam to peep around a corner and find out which
direction he's facing. Approach him from behind.
@Extra4. You can get up to the top of the assault lander if you like that sort
of thing. A couple of easy jumps. WARNING!!! Possible danger to your
'suspension of disbelief' or 'immersion.' This is also the starting point of a
'jumping puzzle' of sorts. From here to the beginning of the level without
touching the ground. Not _too_ tough, that comes later. There may or may not be
a reward. ;) If you like Jedi jumpin' and are one to explore and search out the
areas most folks never see, I think you may be pleased with what the dev. team
left (or put) in the Yavin levels.
@Extra5. The 'jumping puzzle' in this teensy section is just getting topside.
Short but tricky.
@Extra6. Or to get to the 'jumping puzzle' topside. It isn't much of a puzzle,
actually. You can bait the Shadow Trooper that waits on the beach past the
columns and get him to jump up, though. A different place for a saber battle.
@Extra7. Well, there is another topside 'jumping puzzle' that starts down
there. It ends at the top of the stone wall. _Tough_ in a couple o' spots, but
fun and very satisfying to complete.
@Extra8. One big optional 'jumping puzzle' topside here. It starts within a few
feet of the beginning of the level, and runs to the end. Or does it? If you
like jumping from the edge of a knife onto postage stamp, you'll love it. (OK,
I might be exaggerating a hair.) The jumping is a challenge as is just finding
the way. *If you can follow the puzzle as far as it goes, a close up of
something special awaits. (Getting almost there just gets you a view of it.)
"Wiherc fach mits?"* Actually, this puzzle forks near the end, one fork leads
to the close-up, the other to a head on view. Both forks will test you, but in
different ways.
@Extra9. I could find access to some of the 'topside' in this level. The only
puzzle I found was locating a way up. You can visit the top of the waterfall,
and get a very close look at the ties and X-wings. You can have a tie fly thru
you in fact. There may be a way to see more, but I couldn't find it.
@Extra10. You can just run thru the whole level speeding where necessary,
stopping to rebuild force in safe areas. 0 Secrets 0 Shots O Kills. 0.00%
Accuracy. With a little luck, 0 damage. You can get thru all of Yavin swamp and
canyon like this incidentally. You'll miss everything, though. It's good as a
mini game after you've finished the levels.
@Extra11. I could find access to a little of the 'topside' in this level. The
only puzzle I found was locating a way up. Not much to see or do. There is a
rectangular room below the stream bed visible thru some undrawn textures from
one vantage point. Part of the temple? You'll need the ST to get up.
